Gastunk (stylized as GASTUNK) is an influential Japanese rock band, first active from 1983 to 1988.[3][4] Initially a hardcore punk band, guitarist Tatsu later recalled that when Gastunk made their major label debut they were dubbed heavy metal by the media.[3] They reunited for one-off concerts in 1999 and 2006, before fully restarting activities in 2010.
