Something for Nothing is the debut album by French rock band Chunk! No, Captain Chunk!. It was released on November 1, 2010.
After the internet success of their self-titled EP, the band opted to record a studio album, re-recording the song "MILF" from the EP. A 5-song sampler of the album was released for free download on various internet sites in May 2010. The band used music they had written in the few years they have been a band for the album, they didn't write any new songs. The album was self-produced by their singer Bert Poncet[2] He later commented in an interview with Rock Sound saying: "I was producing the songs using a book that was teaching me how to mix records. If it wasn't in the book, I went online to learn the rest".[3]
After signing to Fearless Records with a global deal in 2011, they re-released the album on July 19, 2011. The re-release featured a brand new album artwork and a different track listing, replacing "MILF" and "Alex Kidd in Miracle World" with the song "Make Them Believe", which was a Japanese bonus track on the original release. To coincide with the re-release, the band released a music video for the single "Captain Blood", which was the lead single off the re-release, and overall second single of the album. In November and December, the group supported Blessthefall on the Fearless Friends Tour in the US.[4] In January and February 2012, the group supported Attack Attack! on their US tour.[5]
