This is the 2nd edition of the Monsters 'you're class, i'm trash, from 2021 (first edition was yellow and with a 7" single) this second edition is pink/red 180g vinyl and with a printed inside poster Booklet. The Monsters where founded in 1986 in Bern, Switzerland, as an alternative to the popular music culture of the time (disco, pop, top 40 rock). After 8 full lenghts and countless shows all over the globe, Europe, North and South America, Asia etc, all of their concerts and tours were canceled in 2020 and the whole world was put on hold (Covid 19 pandemic) so the band had time to create a new album to write, spend two weeks in the practice room and then record it for three days at the Shirt Off Studio in Bern together with Sebastian Zwahlen. Voila! 13 rough diamonds, loud and lively sounding tracks, all recorded completely live and without any frills overdubs (only vocals). With only 120 words on the album they are the undefeated champions of the lyrical minimalism of punk rock history, please enjoy 'smell my tongue', a working class song that is about daily ass licking or 'gimme germs' which deals with the constant sterilization of society, or 'electro bike asshole' a shot against the Tesla and co generation or in 'stranger to me' where you look in the mirror and no longer recognize yourself. Cover artwork is by Bernese surrealist Jerry Haenggli
