Jarred Up Presents:
The Munyks (GER)+ Fair Maiden + Paul Party
The Who?? THE MUNYKS!!
Emerging from the post-industrial haze of a German urban sprawl, The Munyks are a snarling reminder that the raw nerve of ‘66/67 never dulled. Far from the empty gestures of “hi”s and “bye”s echoing through their antiseptic hometown, The Munyks break free from the monotony of the mainstream – tearing the wild, untamed sound of British and American garage psychedelic beat straight from the grave!
Sonically, they draw their inspiration from legends like The Rolling Stones, The Who, The Music Machine, The Sonics, or The Doors. A biting fuzz guitar, gritty Vox-amp filth, hypnotic drums, tightly compressed British-style Star Bass, and an Italian Farfisa organ swirling like Syd and Sky on speed — and not least: a distinctive lead voice that’s more incantation than song!
Dreams and nightmares, love, hope, rebellion, and the longing for another world shape their lyrics, expressed in a mixture of symbolist-surrealist poetry and raw, existentialist street poetry. Leave the everyday behind and dive into the alternative, eccentric realm of The Munyks — a pure Rock'n'Roll Circus!
Spin their latest 7” “Nasty Love”, and find them on Instagram, Facebook, www.TheMunyks.com, Youtube, Spotify, Apple Music, and Bandcamp (vinyl and merch available).
