Checkout the new video by Wank!

This Fall, Wank will release their first new album in over twenty years and we're excited to premiere a video from the LP.

Wank made a name for themselves in the Orange County scene in the 90s by merging classic punk structure with a pop edge- not to mention the occasional ska beat here and there. The broke up in 1999, but reunited last year with an EP. Now, thy;re about to release their first album in over 20 years.

"We got back together a couple of years ago to jam, started recording some stuff, liked the way it was sounding, started playing some shows, and decided to make a full record. We didn't plan it to be 20 years, but here we are," guitarist Danny Walker tells Punknews. Walker continues, "We're proud of the new record. We've got a lot of punk and rock influence, but this album pops on top of all of that." Notably, "Shut You Down" has a pronounced ska influence, which Walker attributes, in part, to the time Wank spent touring with The Specials. He adds, "Touring with the Specials was an education - They worked hard on stage, they had great songs, and they we're very cool and professional - Role Models." On the band's direction for the new release, Walker says, "We've got a lot of punk and rock influence, but this album pops on top of all of that. We are super stoked."

White Knuckle Ride will be out later this year. Before then, you can check out "Shut You Down" right now.
