Drunktank

Nine years ago, a crack commando unit was sent to prison for a crime they didn’t commit. These men promptly escaped from a maximum security stockade to the Dutch underground. Today, still wanted by the scenester government, they survive as punk rock soldiers of fortune. If you have a problem with pikeys, or skinny jeans and lumberjack shirts, if no one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire... The Infamous Four. Drunktank brings you fast, melodic, sing-along 90's skatepunk in the tradition of Epitaph, Fat Wreck Chords and Burning Heart bands, combined with riffs and guitar harmonics from 80's metal. After releasing 4 EP’s, Drunktank released their first full-length album "The Infamous Four" in May 2010. The album was mixed and mastered by Jochem Jacobs (Textures) @ Split Second Studios. The album features ten fast paced, no frills, ass kicking tracks. It first got released on labels in Holland, Belgium and Denmark and was followed by a special release in Japan in September 2010 with four bonustracks.
