The Punk Group

The Punk Group is an electro/synth-rock comedy band based in Portland, Oregon. The group began in 2002 "as a joke"[1] and consists of two male members who dub themselves "Sex Object" and "The Model". They record and release all their albums themselves.[2] Critics cite the band's 1980s musical influences, particularly Devo.[3]

The Punk Group frequently criticize pop culture and other artists in their songs and are known for their politically incorrect lyrics.[4] "We like to put people in their place and knock them down a few pegs, you know, make sure they don't get too big for their britches," says one member.[5] Their live show consists of the two members (who sing and play guitar, bass or synthesizer), a drum machine and assorted costumes.[6]
