Bio:

1977 style punk rock band from Cork active ca 1982-84. They played around the city many times in the Bodega and the Pheonix Bar alongside Five Go Down Sea and other bands of that era. Unknown Wrecks supported U2 in the City Hall in Cork in 1982 approx (the U2 gig archive should have more info about this..) and are mentioned in the scene report in MRR #12 published in March 1984, and so were presumably still active at that point.
