SPK

Features

Auckland post-punk band formed in late 1979 by Jed Town and James Pinker (ex-Superettes) with Karel Van Bergen and Chris Orange. Drawing from PIL, Wire, and no-wave, they provided the stylistic delineation between punk and post-punk in Auckland before disbanding in 1980.

Primmers

Auckland punk group from 1979-1980 who were part of the AK79 scene. Their recordings (which were later compiled into a retrospective release) show some reggae and new wave influence.
