Bio

Diesel-powered punk rock.

The 351's are three guys from Quebec City playing punk the way it was played in 1977: fast, loud and without a safety net. Formed in September 2023, the trio plays old school punk with a modern bite, recorded on analog gear and deliberately rough around the edges.

The name comes from the Peterbilt 351, the monster truck from Spielberg's Duel. Kev Berrigan (guitar, vocals) has been driving trucks for 30 years, and he's sure of one thing: "the 351... is the most beautiful truck ever made." Between Kev, Dom Rudester (bass) and Martin "Tin" Gagné (drums), the connection was instant, and the engine turned over.

Since then: two EPs, No Replacement for Displacement (October 2024) and Against All Odds (February 2025), now together on the Worst-Case Scenario vinyl. More than 20 shows across Quebec and the US. Press from Iggy Magazine, Rock Era Magazine, The Bandcamp Diaries and Music Is To Blame (UK), and "Mother Anarchy" spun on Shipwrecked, Sine FM (UK).

Next stop: the studio, early November, to cut a third EP.
