Frank's Daily Song #2

It's technically Tuesday. Here's number 2.



Monsula- "Razors"


Monsula is another East Bay punk band. They had their heyday back in the time that bands like Operation Ivy, Jawbreaker, Green Day, and Fifteen were all playing at the famous 924 Gilman Street club. The first time that I ever listened to Monsula was sort of an accident. I was really into Cringer and Jawbreaker and I had just happened to purchase this strange record. It was just four bands covering each others' songs.

I was totally sold on Monsula only after hearing them cover another band's song. So, I went ahead and purchased the Sanitized release. This was a good idea. It has a lot of decent tracks on it...but there is definitely one stand-out song. "Razors" is too much fun. It's such a perfect example of the late 80's - early 90's East Bay scene.

So, here is "Razors" by Monsula. Enjoy!

Also, if you can find that "Brouhaha" 7-inch anywhere. Totally buy it. It's a great weird punk collection to have laying around.
