Monitor "Beak/Pet Wedding" 7"



What can be said about this magnificent band and particularly this EP... I was mesmerized as a child by their performance on New Wave Theatre, a Los Angeles television show that was broadcasted late at night in certain markets throughout America. Monitor would go on to inspire many noise merchants and now, lifetimes later, the name itself invokes the sound. Incredibly unique, Monitor mixed elements of no-wave and Orange Country punk. Unfortunately, like many other Californian bands they wouldn't best document most of the bands songs, and were never to be properly released. They did however put out an LP sometime after this single.
