Bio: The MCGUNKS are a 3-piece hi-energy rock and roll band from the Providence/Boston area that formed in 2003. Rooted firmly in a rock and roll background, their music reflects rockabilly, punk rock, and even a teensy-tiny bit of country. After multiple prior releases and a retooling of the bands li...

“Quintessential Boston/ Providence punk band, The McGunks, donate a number. Like a Boston accent you can tell where these guys are coming from- Not Long Beach, California or Dubuque, Iowa; not Amarillo, Texas but the dirty, grimy East Coast and that’s what you get here. Gritty pop/punk with a grimy country sheen. Great tune and great lyrics. ”

— Slimedog, Thrash N Bang

“The McGunks are next playing their “drunk punk” music, a label I wish I made up but they themselves did. Always a great live act as they are also, tonight. A trio, Bob McGunk handles the vocals/guitar quite well as Peter McGunk mans the bass. Besides filling up the musical space with his bass notes, Peter also does a great job rousing the crowd by bouncing his bass off his body, raising his fist while playing, letting the sonic boom notes ring out. And back on drums, Bobby McGunk ably wails away. Strangely enough, though all three guys have the same last name none are related! Always a fun band to drink along with.”

— Slimedog, Thrash n Bang

"Closing out the show was RI punk rock masters,The McGunks. Having been around since the beginning of forever, The McGunks are truly legends on the Rhode Island music scene, hell probably the whole Northeast music scene. One of the most underrated bands around today, these guys bring a good solid set of straight up punk tinged rock and roll to every show they play. The McGunks were the perfect band to close out this great night of music and friends that almost never happened!"

“Last but least is the McGunks, only kidding, this band is probably the most underrated punk band in Boston. So it’s no surprise to me that they sound like I’m stepping on a landmine, holding a hand grenade with a stick of dynamite clenched in my teeth. I’m blown away! Especially dig “Ugly American Dream” and “This One Is For The Booze,” ”

— Slimedog, The Noise Boston

“The McGunks are punk drunk Irish hooligans of the worst sort that show why we still see “Irish need not apply” signs in many storefronts. Besides their foul behavior, this is a pretty terrific band. Lyrics like “Three more beers will make me feel better,” and “She used to be pretty, but now she’s pretty fucked up,” are tremendous backed by even better music. One of Boston’s best kept secrets (probably for the good of society) that there be. ”

— Slimedogs Cat, Slimedog

“wow... just WOW!!! this fucking cd kicks ass!!!!!! ”

— Howie Fightback

“This cd is full of catchy punk rock anthems! After hearing some song previews I had to buy the whole album. And I buy very few cds! I love everything about this- lyrics, vocals, music... It all comes together perfectly”

— Yvonne Frenck, NOVA Press

“Raw unadulterated rock 'n roll straight out of Rhode Island, the McGunks "Here Comes The Shame" is a must have for any fan of the Boston area music scene. ”

— Joe Venta, cdbaby.com

“The McGunks' Whiskey in a Bottle is a winner; a staggering, lilting, sing-a-long to heavy drinking and the curb you end up sleeping in.”

— Boston Groupie News
