Shaka Ponk (sometimes abbreviated as SHKPNK) is a French experimental rock band created in 2004. They mix different forms of popular music into their songs in addition to world music although predominately with an electronic rock sound. Lyrics are written mostly in a mixture of English, French and Spanish languages. ==History== Shaka Ponk is a Paris-based band which blends rock, electronic, punk rock, funk rock and hip hop. The live show combines digital animation with an energetic display from the band members. Released under the French record label Tôt ou Tard/ Guess What! (Yael Naim - Piers Faccini), ''Bad Porn Movie Trax'' is composed of fourteen tracks including singles "How We Kill Stars" and "Do". Shaka Ponk got its start between Paris and Berlin in 2005 from a concept that brings together music, imagery and energy. The former web designer and frontman of the group, Frah, along with guitarist, CC, came up with a project that combined conventional rock-n-roll elements (dirty guitar riffs and beats) with techniques such as VJing, which mixes sounds and images around an animated monkey character named Goz who is considered as much a part of the group as the other five members. Since then, the band has been active online creating videos and motion graphic work along their conceptual style as well as their own online channel, "Monkey TV". Shaka Ponk performed in New York City for the first time October 2009 in the celebrated CMJ Musical Festival and on November 7, AOL chose the track "How We Kill Stars" off the new album ''Bad Porn Movie Trax'' as the Music Video of the Day. The band released the album in the United States on March 1, 2010. In 2011 the band added a female singer, Samaha Sam, and released their album ''The Geeks and the Jerkin' Socks'' in June, 2011. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Shaka Ponk」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
