Ride Dear wild adventure, please take me for a ride I am a rebel, so let me be your bride We're a doomed generation, but we don't really care We live in fear, know madness and despair Let's ride You got to ride, you got to ride Baby, baby you got to ride No we don't give a fuck, all we do is dwell Don't ask, don't tell, we all go to hell Whatever we might do, you did it all before That's our fate, second borns abhore That's right You got to ride, you got to ride Baby, baby you got to ride Oh dear adventure don't you realize We will be hated, perhaps idolized And maybe one day, we will find some peace Primes left behind, the anger will decrease

Aeroplane I'll fly around the globe, all across the sky Wanna see all mountains, every lake and bay Rivers, castles and a hurricane I've just bought a ticket for an aeroplane She's got a ticket for an aeroplane She's got ticket for a plane Get to Icleand, sit in steaming pools Get to Fireland, where they say it's really cool Jungles, streams, I'm not going by train I've just bought a ticket for an aeroplane She's got a ticket for an aeroplane she's got ticket for a plane Oh no, I overslept, dear sir can you help? Can you take me to the airport or do I need to yelp? I really wanna get there, there's no reason here to stay That's why I have a ticket for an aeroplane

about

«Limited», «Deranged», «Superhits» and now «Nuts». Within only three days THE MONOFONES recorded the 14 songs of their fourth album and thus stayed musically true to themselves by playing their garage-rock as dirty and trashy as possible. Sir Hamesly's guitar sounds like a tractor which is about to kick the bucket, the drum of El Miguel rumbles like a discarded car engine and Miss O.O. uses her organ, as if she had to scold a whole army.
An excessive consumption of animal documentaries has not only left it's traces in the lyrics on «Nuts» but also resulted in poetical masterpieces about porcupines in love and megalomaniac pugs. Apart from that it is also religious, cultural and philosophical aspects of life which are investigated: Jesus gets sent into a nailstudio, the father of rock'n'roll Lemmy is honoured in a hymn and the arch-fiend gets presented a list of all existing fatal illnesses.
All over Europe THE MONOFONES are well known for their wild, trashy and sweaty live shows, for being elegantly dressed and for being kind of nuts. Squirrel ahoi – may the Mono be with you!

The Monofones Switzerland

THE MONOFONES are a rumbling drum, a heavily distorted guitar which sounds like tractor shortly before kicking the bucket and a female voice by which you wouldn't like to be told off. The three produce loud and wild 60s garage trash with a pinch of punk. The sweaty shows of THE MONOFONES are a low-fi inferno of a different kind and highly entertaining. ... more
