UNCLECHUNK

SO CHUNKY YOU CAN CARVE IT!

About Me

UNCLECHUNK A three-piece renowned for their eclectic groove-metal, Uncle Chunk’s sound is rooted in ultra-heavy funk, with fractured time signatures and a fast, jazzy edge. Guitarist Mike Russo, bassist Chris Laidler and drummer Marc Russo share three-part harmonic vocals in an intriguingly oddball arrangement seldom seen amongst their contemporaries. With themes that celebrate the ridiculous, their playful presence on stage reminds us that metal does not have to be serious, to be seriously heavy! UNCLECHUNK continue to forge a distinctive path that defies formula and enthusiastically takes on a myriad of musical styles, infused with a heavy dose of ‘CHUNK’.MySpace Layouts by Iron Spider
