Wunderbach are a French punk rock band that was heavily active from 1981 – 1984. Rich in the history of the French streetpunk scene these guys continue to leave a mark to this very day. ‘Week-End A Nanterre’ is an 11-song live LP recorded at one of their last shows in 1984 before they split up. It has a nice raw sound and shows the band in their prime long before their reunion in 2005. A true testimony to how great this band was, it still crackles with the youthful punk energy that infused the band from the beginning. Gang-shouted choruses and references to working class ideals show that Wunderbach were forerunners of the Oi! and harder edged street punk scene in the scenes early days. Alongside bar-room gems and a couple silly fun songs are their more socially conscious anthems that helped give the band their identity. 500 copies only
