Chunk! No, Captain Chunk!, often lauded for their dynamic fusion of pop-punk and hardcore metal—aptly described as "easycore"—is a Parisian band that made its mark on the international music scene with an infectiously energetic sound and relentlessly optimistic lyrics. Formed in 2007 by vocalist Bertrand Poncet, guitarists Paul Wilson and Éric Poncet, bassist Mathias Rigal, and drummer Bastien Lafaye, the band derives its quirky name from a line in the 1985 classic adventure-comedy film "The Goonies."

Their initial splash in the music pool, "Something for Nothing" (2010), captured the raw zeal of youth and set the tone for their later works, with "Pardon My French" (2013) and its deluxe edition further establishing their unique blend of heavy riffs and anthemic choruses. The band continued to evolve both artistically and in their fanbase size with "Get Lost, Find Yourself" (2015), demonstrating a maturation in their songwriting and melodic prowess. After a hiatus, they returned in 2021 with "Gone Are The Good Days," where they nostalgically reflected upon change and the passage of time while yet delivering the same vivacious energy that has characterized their career. Their passionate global following has been sustained not just by their recordings, but by their reputation for delivering high-octane, spirited performances worldwide.
