Lady Pank


Lady Pank is a popular Polish rock band, started in 1981 in Wroclaw by Jan Borysewicz and Andrzej Mogielnicki. One of the most popular groups in history of Polish rock. Its first hit was Mała Lady Punk.
Lady Pank garnered some attention in the United States in 1986, when MTV placed the video for the band's single "Minus Zero" on rotation. The title was somewhat changed for the English language release; the original Polish title Mniej niż zero means "less than zero".
