This current classic line-up has remained intact since the mid-1980s, continuing tore gularly tour and release new music through to now.Theirs is an improbable history–a surprising and influential embrace of folk and country music with occasional forays into the art world. They have always worked collaboratively and collectively with all work credited to the band, never to individuals. Their mind-boggling output consistently blurs the lines between high art and low andhas included exhibitions in the UK and US, a deranged pirate musical recorded and staged withKathy Acker, an art performance with Vito Acconci, and several books including the unique art catalog/unfinished novel Mekons United. "Revenge of the mekons", a documentary about the band received nationwide release in 2015 on Music Box Films. The mekons continue to make bold, unpredictable music while staying true to the punk ethos.
