Products description
Alex "Daddy" Wonk legte 1992 in London mit seiner Band "The Flying Medallions" den Grundstein für das, was heute Wonk Unit ist: Eine in Europa einzigartige Band mit eigenem Sound, eigenem Humor, eigenem Festival und tief verwurzeltem DIY Background. Alex Brindle Johnson ist dabei als Lead Singer, Poet, Skater, Stage Perfomer und kreativer Motor das Herz der Band, von der nicht wenige behaupten, dass es das derzeit Spannendste sei, was es auf Europas Punkrockbühnen zu sehen gibt. Dazu passend Musik und Songs, die sich nicht im Geringsten um Genregrenzen scheren und die doch zu jeder Zeit Alex Brindle Johnson und damit Wonk Unit sind. Punk braucht seit Jahren neuen Input und Wonk Unit liefern genau das. In other words:
"It´s punk son, but not as we know it" Eugene Butcher (Big Cheese)
TERROR ist das aktuelle Studioalbum und enthält mit CHIRISTMAS IN A CRACKHOUSE, ME AND CURTIS, DAY JOB oder auch FAITH einige der besten Songs der üppigen WONK UNIT Diskografie. Die LP kommt mit wonkgrünem Vinyl, Download Code, Insert Card in LP-Größe und Cover aus schwerem Karton.

Los Angeles-based ska-punk band THE INTERRUPTERS finally released their sophomore album, Say It Out Loud, via Hellcat Records. Say It Out Loud is undeniably fun and urgent in message. And backing their modernized 2-Tone-tinged, guitar-fueled, melody-heavy sound are lyrics that confront everything from social control and self-empowerment to domestic violence and the media circus surrounding the next presidential election.
Reissue of the very first THE INTERRUPTERS record out on Hellcat Rec. Great, tuneful ska punk music for fans of RANCID and the like. Recommended!
Official reissue of the second HORROR VACUI album, originally released on Black Water in the States and on Avant! and Legion Of The Dead Rec. in Europe in 2014. This reissue includes bonus songs that compile the previous US- and Euro-version exclusive tracks and the "Lortnoced" cover version that originally appeared on 2014's "Desperate Adelia" 7" single released through US-based Mass Media Rec. that also published the first TOTENWALD 12".
Black deluxe 180g vinyl, double-sided, printed innersleeve, reissued through Plastic Bomb Records.
Classic material!
Long out of print and a true classic of American punkrock rebel music.
Originally published on Kill Rockstars Rec. in 1996.
"One of the most unique bands in modern punk rock. Wonk Unit are a fresh breath of life in the London punk scene. They?re fun, weird, poetic and utterly compelling all at once, a must-see." Art Rocker
Alex "Daddy" Wonk laid the foundation for what is now the Wonk Unit in London in 1992 with his Band "The Flying Medallions".

Alex Brindle Johnson as the lead singer but also poet, skater, stage performer and creative motor is the heart of the band. Several claim that WONK UNIT is currently the most exciting thing happening on Europe´s punk rock stages.
Additionally, music and songs that have no sense of genre borders but at the same time portray exactly what Alex Brindle Johnson and therefore Work Unit are. For years Punk has needed new input and [...]
