Review:
Here it is, the SONS OF CYRUS' 3rd full length ‘Monkey Business’! This singles and rarities collection contains EVERYTHING the band has recorded excluding their 2 full lengths. This epic 20 song disc includes their essential 6 singles (‘Tired of this time’, ‘Switzerland’, ‘What to do’, ‘Nobody but me’, ‘A Lonesome boy’ and ‘The Warriors’), a song from the 1st demo, some of their incredibly hard to find comp. trax (BAM Magazine, PUNK released in 2000) and their two tribute trax (Nomads and a very competant Stones cover)!I don’t think there are many bands out their that understand the true spirit and feel of rock n roll, but the SONS OF CYRUS are certainly one of them. ‘Monkey Business’ is in essence a retrospective and captures the band at their earliest, most primitive stage all the way up to the end. And this disc just docements one of Swedens most talented contemporary bands, past and present! If you dig bands like the Hellacopters, Backyard Babies, Maggots, Flaming Sideburns, Demons, Texas Terri, Electric Frankenstein, etc. this ones a must have. As far as the the straight forward detroit meets Nuggets style rock n roll, the SONS OF CYRUS are defininitely one of the best. (DEAD BEAT RECORDS)
