We are proud to announce the addition of former WWF superstar, James "The Giant Kamala" Harris to the Ponk roster. For years Kamala has been writing and singing songs about the road, heartbreak, being used by "the man" and a lot more. We will be releasing a 7" EP (and digital download) in early Septmber of Kamala's songs. WOW!!!

Junk's debut CD is out and is fantastic! It features the lovely and talented Rachel Brooke and is getting rave reviews and they are playing to sell-out crowds. Pick it up in the store or, if you prefer, the tracks are available in itunes as well. Check more out here.

The Carnival Of Excess double 7" is OUT NOW!! These are the original "raw" mixes. This full length double 7" release comes in a gatefold sleeve featuring a few rarely seen classic photos of GG from when it was recorded in 1991. Grab a copy in the Ponk store or click here to order.

GG Allin's Bleedin' Stinkin' & Drinkin' 2009 DVD is out and now available. Go here to order and for more info. A low priced DVD featuring the classic Frank Mullen interview and some other stuff.

OUT NOW from the Ponk Media vaults is a Tiny Tim/GG Allin split 7"! Featuring previously unreleased material, this will surely rank as one of the more bizarre (yet inspired) of musical pairings. Few realize that not only was GG a great admirer of Tiny's work, but that Tiny was well aware of GG and had a certain respect for his tenacity... The two actually met in the mid-80's! This promises to be unusual, to say the least. Vinyl out NOW..Order here

Both the Tiny Tim and the Nervous Norvus full-lengths are about ready to go.

Both albums have been remastered by Kramer, and will be available digitally prior to their street release dates.

Ponk Media's international wing - based in South London - commenced active operations in February of '09. A series of UK-exclusive releases, which may or may not be issued over there in conjunction with our sub-label Indian, is on course. Thus far the emphasis is on carefully selected punk rock - check the Ponk UK & Indian pages to keep updated...

Euge From The Coast continues his itinerant musical path across the globe as a prelude to his debut release on Ponk. At present he is Scandinavia, but he rarely stays in one spot for long - so look for him in your home-town sooner rather than later...

Now a six-piece, Florida's wedgepiece continue to gain in popularity. The band return to the studio imminently to record the follow-up to their critically-acclaimed debut "Absolute Bliss". Look for their brilliant new release, Exit L'Amour due out sometime. Digital/CD.
