2 Sick Monkeys

About

2 Sick Monkeys formed in December 2000, as a live two piece bass and drums, primarily to support Darrin Mooney (Primal Scream) at a drum event in Swindon.

They have now played over 780 gigs, including 8 European tours.

They have built up a strong live following and have supported bands such as Nomeansno, Subhumans, Anti-Nowhere League, GBH, Discharge, The Varukers, The Dickies, Total Chaos, UK Subs, Inner Terrestrials, Misfits, The Buzzcocks, Goldblade, 999, Citizen Fish, Vice Squad, Sham 69, Targetpoint, Captain Everything, Neville Staples, The Vibrators, Sonic Boom Six, The Fight and Lord Bishop Rocks.

Their influences range from the complex rhythms of Nomeansno to the catchy melodies of Green Day.

September 2002 saw 2 Sick Monkeys release their debut 5-track CD “Full Flavour Behaviour” and their second CD, the 4-track EP, “Nowhere Nothing”, followed in August 2003.

Their debut album “Curse of the Monkeys” was released in October 2005 and 2006 was their busiest year ever with 108 gigs in England, Wales, the Netherlands, Germany and Czech Republic.

2008 saw them release the new "Why?" EP (in October) and carry on with the relentless gigging.
