Kalkencity skapunk Extravaganza!

About Me

The least you could say about this band is that they are not your average skapunkband Since they were founded in the winter of 2000 they havent stopped evolving, adding musicians (from a 4-piece to an 8-piece) and most of all letting new musical influences slip into their old ones! They feed off such a wide range of styles that most people are left in the middle of stylish-nowhere after seeing them live.Throughout the years theyve earned a stunning live reputation which has lead to numerous gigs in Belgium, France and the Netherlands as well as three UK-tours, playing with bands such as Bad Manners, the Business, Julian Marley & the Uprising, the Kids, the Hotknives, Big D and the Kids Table, Leftver Crack, Citizen Fish, Venerea, Funeral Dress, Frans Bauer and many many moreAfter recording a few demos and appearing on several compilations they are proud to present their first mini-album, containing 7(+1) tracks going from Latin Grooves through French chanson right up to Metal breaks and riffs without ever losing touch with the reason why it al started: their profound love for the ankle-breaking rhythms of Ska music.
