Flying Monkeys - Random Songs From 2005 (2005)



/Punk rock, Alternative, DIY, Lo-fi, Hardcore punk, Oi! punk/


Comment: Flying Monkeys was a Chicago-based punk group consisting of Riot Cross, and Calvin Chaos aka Xombie Panic. Their sound is truly lo-fi, rough, and dirty, more concretely, all of that is recorded on a 4-track recorder and sounding like having it done without exploiting any plugs and other "normal" devices. Yet, their DIY-aesthetics is highly charming, suggestive, and even exulting now and then involving the elements of oi!, and hardcore-esque noodling at a high frequency. In a word, these 10 short-running blasts (spreaded out over 13 minutes) are worth to be checked out for.
