bio

 
 

Monkey3 started during the year 2001 as a musicians' community dedicated to jam-sessions. The overall intonations of this improvisations, due to everybody's influences, was in a stoner-rock vibe. Attracted by this experience, the band was finally formed as a quartet, Picasso - Bass, Walter - Drums, Boris - Guitar and Mister M. - Sampler & Keys, and decided to create its own musical world.

"Monkey3", the first album of the band, was released in march 2003. Following this production, Monkey3 inked a deal with the Belgian label Buzzville Records. The record has been re-released in a bigger way in june 2004.

Monkey3 started to built a good "live" reputation thanks to their particular sonic universe embellished by visual projections on the bass drum and the quality of   their "wall of sound".

"39 laps", the second Monkey3's album, was recorded during april 2006 and released in November 2006. In between, Monkey3 appeared on a split E.P with the stoner-rock act Hypnos69.

To promote their music, during the past years, Monkey3 toured in Belgium, Netherlands, U.K, France, Switzerland and Germany playing with acts such as Alabama Thunderpussy, Mono, Honcho, Colour Haze, Los Natas, Dozer, Hypnos 69, Houston swing engine, Sparzanza, NIN, Ozric Tentacles.

With the new tunes and with the acquired experience, Monkey3 will set up a more bewitched and unique show in order to follow what has been described as the "ultimate psycostoner experience".

Here the story...

BORIS  (the last gamuzaõ):

"I'm born in a land between fuzz and fdback deeuring the year 6616.
My space ship crashed on earth while I was cruising in the big black hole of the universe...dring...dring...dring...,wake up,the black hole is just in your head."


WALTERRRRR (no one trip as him):"Born on the planète of the monkeys 04.03.3254. Après a voyage with is idols, it has découvert a world psycédélic with the infinite cosmic variations. It seeks new monkeys to repopulate the planète. Contact for the new adventures it in the world parallel !!!" (translated from french with google !!!)

 

PICASSO (picassaõ):"Born from incestueux cohit of Urko and Zaius, the créature is distinguished under several formes : - The AMPEG (the more accesible form) : the bête hums all low outside the 15 inches in madness. The form G3 (nécéssite l'absorbtion of substances étranges) : décollage vertical and frisage convulsif cross then are mêlent in a jouissive anguish. - Form the ENTUBEMAN (most vicious and distordue) : the sonic magma compresses our neurons court-circuités and end up making them live again; FINALLY FREE ! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH !" (translated from french with google !!!)

MISTER M. :
" I'm a sound, I'm a noise, I'm a perversion. Sometimes I'm real,

sometimes I'm just in your dreams or nightmares. I'm the dirty little voice
in your head. I stand up in the middle of the great psycho jungle of the
apes brain."
