Chunk! No, Captain Chunk! (Also known by the acronym C!NCC!) are a French Rock Band formed in 2007 in Paris. The band consists of Vocalist Bertrand Poncet,Guitarists Eric Poncet and Paul Wilson and Bassist Mathias Rigal, with founding Drummer Jonathan Donnaes having left in 2014 to be replaced by Bastien Lafaye. The band has released two studio albums, Something For Nothing on November 1, 2010 and Pardon My French on April 30, 2013.History : Formation and Something For Nothing (2007 - 2010) : The band formed in 2007, when Paul Wilson, a Guitarists, wished to experiment with blending influences from Pop Punk with Hardcore Punk and Heavy Metal and invited his friends Bertrand Poncet, Jonathan Donnaes and two others to join the band. Shortly after their formation the other two members left and so they asked Bertrand's brother Eric Poncet and close friend Mathias Rigal who despite having no experience as a Bass-Guitarist joined the band. The band name is taken from the scene in 1985 adventure-comedy film The Goonies, in which Chunk and sloth arrive on the scene to help their friends. Poncet describes the choice of The Goonies as a "Good Childhood Reference" and felt the name reflected who the band members are. The band found it difficult to establish a fanbase in their native country of France as there is, in Poncet's opinion, "Absolutely No Rock Scene". They found solace in playing in other countries around Asia, and especially in North America.
On September 2, 2010, the band released their first official single "In Friends We Trust", along with an accompanying music video. On November 1, 2010, the band released their Self-Produced debut album Something For Nothing.
Departure of Jonathan Donnaes and Get Lost, Find Yourself (2014 - Present) : Shortly after the Warped Tour, Drummer Jonathan Donnaes left the band as of August 4th, 2014, leaving the following message as of his departure : "Since yesterday I officially left the band. This is a decision I took last year already. A new life, with my (new) Fiancee, and a new job are waiting for me. But don't worry, the boys in Chunk will keep rocking the stage all over the world, and one of my bestfriend will be their new Drummer. I just want to say thank you, For everything. You made my dream becomes true, and I will always be grateful for that. Au revoir mes amis!".
The band is currently recording for their third album, expected to be released in 2015 via Fearless Records. On March 11, they announced the upcoming album to be titled "Get Lost, Find Yourself" and revealed it's album artwork and tracklisting. Musical Style : Chunk! No, Captain Chunk!'s musical style is defined by a Pop Punk sound, Contrasted with "Growling Hardcore" and a "Heavy Metal Alter Ego". Guitarist Paul Wilson summarized this style by saying the band is "Kind Of Bipolar". The band fuses the upbeat melodies of Pop Punk with aggressive breakdowns, Guitar chugging and lower guitar tunings such as Drop B to give their music a heavier edge. They have been said to "Combine the Energy of Punk, the Catchiness of Pop, and the Crushing Assault of Hardcore Into a Power Party Sound". Singer Bertrand Poncet has stated that although the band is French, their sound is American, which is why they write lyrics in English. The band's debut album "Something For Nothing" has been said by the band to incorporate elements of Pop Punk, Hardcore, Metal, Acoustic, Indie, and Dance Music, Employing Singing, Death Growls and Keyboards. The style of "Pardon My French" was intended by the band to center around the theme of bipolarity, with Poncet stating that the song "Bipolar Mind" epitomised their contrasting musical style well, having "The Catchiest Chorus Placed Right Next To The Nastiest Breakdown". Rhythm Guitarist Paul Wilson stated that "I Am Nothing Like You", also from Pardon My French, is the heaviest song they have ever written.
Chunk! No, Captain Chunk! have been described by various critics as fusing Pop Punk, Melodic Hardcore and Metalcore. This eclectic blend of styles, known as "Easycore" or "Popcore", was pioneered by the likes of A Day To Remember and Four Year Strong, bands whom reviewers have made stark comparisons with. Nevertheless, C!NCC! claim they never intended to sound like these bands and simply wanted to apply aggressive musical traits to Pop Punk. They have said that they draw influence from a variety of styles, including but not limited to Dubstep, Classical, Rock, Heavy Metal and Pop.
Chunk! No, Captain Chunk!'s music vacillates between two different extremes, Folding high octane, Crazy catchy Pop Punk melodies into pummeling and Potent Hardcore. It's Popcore (Or Easycore, as the critics like to say) at it's finest.
