PUNK ROCK FACTORY HIT NUMBER 6 IN MIDWEEKS WITH THEIR NEW ALBUM ‘ALL HANDS ON DECK’

“A record made for the good times. Pure unadulterated fun, filtered through a stream of pit-spinning beats, buoyant riffs and throat-shredding singalongs. It represents the sort of vivacious, carefree and jubilant energy that we need so much more of in this day and age.” – Rock Sound

“The pop-punk cover band who became a viral sensation during lockdown have somehow gone from strength to strength, with legions of fans around the world, who have found an unlikely connection through punked-up versions of the themes to Pokémon, Buffy The Vampire Slayer and Red Dwarf.” – Kerrang!

The rollercoaster ride of Punk Rock Factory has taken in countless highlights, from storming Bloodstock, Download and Slam Duck with wall-to-wall pop-gone-punk bangers, to selling 30,000 tickets to last year’s headline tour, through to collaborating with everyone from ‘90s icons B*Witched to nu-metal figurehead Jacoby Shaddix of Papa Roach. Yet none of their previous seven records have troubled the upper reaches of the UK’s Official Album Chart. But that’s all set to change in spectacular fashion as their new record ‘All Hands On Deck’ stands at #6 in the midweeks – their highest chart position so far.

The band’s vocalist and guitarist Peej Edwards says, “This is absolutely blowing our minds! To see our name up there in the charts alongside some of the biggest names in the business isn’t something we imagined was possible when we started this back in 2015. We are eternally grateful for all the support from our incredible fans!”

Fans can support the Factory’s highest chart position by ordering ‘All Hands On Deck’ HERE. Formats cater to every taste imaginable, with two striking vinyls, a range of CDs including a special Live Edition, and a black cassette – plus of course bundles and signed copies.

If you’re yet to be introduced to the Punk Rock Factory floor, ‘All Hands On Deck’ is the perfect introduction to the cult sensations. The Welsh four-piece put the punk pedal-to-the-metal on a set of ‘90s classics, and keep the intensity at fever pitch from ‘Boom! Shake The Room’ to ‘Teardrop’ via ‘Back For Good’, ‘C’est La Vie’ and much more. It’s a 35-minute shortsharpshock of pummelling punk party power.

Punk Rock Factory are currently in the midst of an instore tour which culminates at London’s Rough Trade East this Friday. They’re already making plans that go deep in 2026 with the ‘We’re Gonna Need A Bigger Boat’ tour – their biggest UK headline tour so far.
