Japunga was a hard rock/metal band in Brisbane, Australia. Formed in 2001 and built on the life experiences of singer/songwriter/guitarist Jef Carter.
Japunga released an EP titled beginnings in 2001, followed by their second studio album Light at Days End, which received considerable airplay on Australian radio stations such as Triple J and Triple M, and reached No. 6 on the A.I.R. Charts. The inspiration for the title track of Light at Days End came after Carter underwent emergency surgery after narrowly surviving a knife fight in Brisbane's Fortitude Valley.
The band released Souls Conflicting in November 2005. Souls Conflicting received mixed reviews throughout the country, mainly due to the softer vocals.
Japunga have toured and played shows with bands including Slipknot, Hatebreed, Trivium, Mudvayne, Sepultura, The Used, Machine Head, The Butterfly Effect, Devolved, Suns Owl (Japan), and Cog.
