[spunge]

Ska-punk rockers Spunge are one of the UK's leading acts within a genre dominated by US bands such as Less Than Jake, Mighty Mighty Bosstones and Reel Big Fish. The band claim to have hit upon the sound by accident, having amalgamated their collective influences of Sublime, Stiff Little Fingers, The Clash and The Wildhearts. Lead singer Alex Copeland has joked that the brackets are in the name so that the letters do not fall out.
