SPANKTHENUN is a band who works with other bands and artists all over the world. The main output from SPANKTHENUN is by the two core members of the band as well as some regular collaborators. The original focus of the band was to write and play live and not release any music on traditional streaming or physical formats. That changed in 2019 when the focus changed to getting the music out and releasing it through all means possible. This put them in a good position to be very prolific during the lockdown in 2020, including work with legendary industrial icon Claus Larsen on their first single Rotting Meat and two albums The Bunker Tapes VOL I and the brand new release The Bunker Tapes VOL II.
"I had great fun mixing this release for the SPANKTHENUN. I feel I have a connection in the way they approach their songwriting. A “punky” sort of way, spontaneous, positive, and a focus on the energy and beat. I see a great future for them." - Claus Larsen
2019 saw the initial release of REGRESSION COMPLEX, with four tracks of new music. This initial release was well received immediately, and the focus was on to the next single and getting remixes done by some of the best in the business. SPANKTHENUN reached out to several artists they respected and had met in the past through live shows and DJing at clubs.
In 2020, SPANKTHENUN released the full length album Initial Decay Control, several singles including very dark cover of the X-mas classic Jingle Bells and a cover of KMFDMs classic club hit VIRUS, an extended remix album GLITCH BURN SIN featuring several legendary artists from the industrial music scene. Also, the band released yet another full length album in 2020 - The Bunker Tapes VOL I featuring their hit track DOMINATE.
