2 sick monkeys

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 1,000 gigs, including 10 European tours. They have built up a strong live following and have supported bands such as Nomeansno, Subhumans, D.O.A., 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, their second CD, the 4-track EP, Nowhere Nothing, followed in August 2003. The debut album Curse of the Monkeys was released in October 2005. 2006 and 2007 was their busiest gigging period to date with 198 gigs!! 2008 saw them release the Why? EP (in October) and carry on with the relentless gigging. 2009 was their second busiest year gig-wise with another 95 gigs played including 2 European Tours (one with Dead Subverts in July another on their own in October).
