Monkeys Blood are Peesh from LoGoZ<\/strong> on guitar and vocals, Denni from The Undaclass<\/strong> on bass, and Iain from Slalom D<\/strong> on drums.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They launched the two-track CD with a gig at Diego’s Joint in Sunderland on 15 August, with ex-Kickback Generation man James Thoroughgood<\/strong> and former Angelic Upstarts guitarist Neil Newton’s new band Heedcase<\/strong> also on the bill.<\/p>\n\n\n

A right noisy night was had by all, but there’s more to come; despite the fact all three members are active in other bands, Monkeys Blood have already laid down 12 tracks for a debut album.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There’s no word on when it might be released just yet, but if the first two tracks are anything to go by it’ll be a belter. You can get Fist\/Vex<\/em> from Monkeys Blood at their gigs or contact them via their Facebook page HERE<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
