The Cunts are one of the oldest and quite possibly (along with Skafish) the longest running punk/garage bands in Chicago. They've released a ton records from the late 70s well into the 21 century. Their label, Disturbing Records, might be considered the very first punk label in Chicago.

Notes

  • They likely formed in 1978
  • Their name is usually referred to as The C*nts
  • Are from the Bridgeport, on the South Side
  • Most frequently played the Spaceport Lounge
