plonk by The Earwurms
plonk is the new album of the Amsterdam based conceptual punk band The Earwurms. With
help from crowdfunding and subsidized funding they could record their first studio album in
Schenk Studio at the end of 2024. The studio environment offered new ways to explore their
sound. The focus being on writing songs which connect rock and alternative music with
experimental music.
Plonk stands for the plonky sounds produced by the instruments that will nestle in your ears to
stay on repeat. The songs cover topics from grilling to facism to heartbreak, all the concepts
stuck in the brain of a modern woman.
