theJUNK are a seven piece skacore band from Brighton,UK. theJUNK started in April 2008, and after writing and releasing an EP of very well received catchy ska/corepunk, they decided to recruit a brass section. 

theJUNK have a very strong DIY attitude and love to meet and play with people from all over the country. They believe the scene is important and should be supported whenever possible. 

theJUNK have filled out venues across England with bands such as Citizen Fish, Rentokill, The Rabble, Skaville UK, Mike TV, Too Many Crooks, 7dayCONSPIRACY, Dan Potthast, Random Hand, The JB Conspiracy, The Skints, Girlfixer and the obvious many more, as well as playing shows in Holland and Belgium. 

theJUNK recently recorded their second EP with renowned record producer Dave Chang - CAPDOWN/LIGHTYEAR/4ftFINGERS/KNUCKLEDUST etc (www.myspace.com/davechang). This new EP, entitled NOVUS ORDO SECLORUM, perfectly captures the new blasting, relentless, upbeat sound of theJUNK. 

The band have spent the last year or so relentlessly touring the UK, and are set to embark on a full European tour in July 2010. Upon their return they will be going into the studio to record their first full-length with the legendary Pete Miles (King Blues, Sonic Boom Six etc) 

Members of theJUNK have previously been in bands such as Once Over, Antilectual (UK), GROGAN, Another Day Lost, Heroes In A Halfshell and Captain Snake Eyes. 


theJUNK refuse to stand for racism, homophobia, fascism, sexism and will not stop fighting for equality.
