Switzerland's legendary garage punk band, <a data-mce-href="https://the-monsters.bandcamp.com/album/youre-class-im-trash" href="https://the-monsters.bandcamp.com/album/youre-class-im-trash" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Monsters</a>, are finally hitting the UK shores after forming back in 1986. Known for their one-riff trash rock that defies the mainstream, The Monsters bring a fusion of '60s garage punk, rockabilly, and primitive rock 'n' roll, with a touch of black metal boogie. They're not your typical chart-toppers; they're the embodiment of raw, live energy, having toured globally and shared stages with icons like Guitar Wolf and The Sonics.<figure id="figure-qpdb0sgpypm3jm5nc6" data-full-width=""><img id="qpdb0sgpypm3jm5nc6" src="https://cdn.durable.co/blocks/2SgOklJKsL3vbg8gbKbw2UordcJt7sT6j5ZamdL8UFcUorAgvJf9SPEPGv4Qrjk4.jpg" alt="" title="" class="object-cover bg-gray-100 rounded-sm md:rounded-md lg:rounded-lg" style="aspect-ratio: 1/1; object-position: center center;" data-corners="default" data-aspect="1:1" data-caption="" data-positionx="undefined" data-positiony="undefined" data-fullwidth="true" data-mce-src="https://cdn.durable.co/blocks/2SgOklJKsL3vbg8gbKbw2UordcJt7sT6j5ZamdL8UFcUorAgvJf9SPEPGv4Qrjk4.jpg" data-mce-style="aspect-ratio: 1/1; object-position: center center;"></figure><figure id="figure-6jxodddcx5m3jpr1q7"><iframe id="6jxodddcx5m3jpr1q7" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/x4JyZc9-K90" class="w-full bg-gray-100 rounded-sm md:rounded-md lg:rounded-lg" style="aspect-ratio: 16/9" allow="autoplay; encrypted-media" allowFullScreen="" data-url="https://youtu.be/x4JyZc9-K90?feature=shared" data-corners="default" data-fullWidth="false"></iframe></figure>Their discography includes eight albums, with standout releases like “Youth Against Nature” recorded at London's Toe Rag Studios, and the innovative “I See Dead People,” which came with a puzzle and other collectibles.

With their two-minute anthems about love, life, and liberation, they're the voice of the new generation. Their debut “The Young Generation,” also recorded at Toe Rag Studios, is a quick 13-song rush of danceable, romantic punk that captures the essence of '60s bubblegum and '70s punk.<figure id="figure-pwc747dqrm3jm0sed"><iframe id="pwc747dqrm3jm0sed" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/wy9Jnx9mXd8" class="w-full bg-gray-100 rounded-sm md:rounded-md lg:rounded-lg" style="aspect-ratio: 16/9;" allowfullscreen="" data-url="https://youtu.be/wy9Jnx9mXd8?feature=shared" data-corners="default" data-fullwidth="false" data-mce-src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/wy9Jnx9mXd8" data-mce-style="aspect-ratio: 16/9;"></iframe></figure> Don't miss this explosive evening where The Monsters and Young Francis Hi Fi promise to deliver an unforgettable night of punk rock magic.<figure id="figure-sat9fusf9m3jm7drj"><img id="sat9fusf9m3jm7drj" src="https://cdn.durable.co/covers/15VQb3n3Pc1emwBIR0qcpJxsPKaKMm14R5EFXU4pws4BtImpF5IvnSnJ22EUyEM2.jpg" alt="" title="" class="object-cover bg-gray-100 rounded-sm md:rounded-md lg:rounded-lg" style="aspect-ratio: 1/1; object-position: center center;" data-corners="default" data-aspect="1:1" data-caption="" data-positionx="undefined" data-positiony="undefined" data-fullwidth="false" data-mce-src="https://cdn.durable.co/covers/15VQb3n3Pc1emwBIR0qcpJxsPKaKMm14R5EFXU4pws4BtImpF5IvnSnJ22EUyEM2.jpg" data-mce-style="aspect-ratio: 1/1; object-position: center center;"></figure><a data-mce-href="https://www.14thfloormusic.co.uk/product-category/gig-tickets/" href="https://www.14thfloormusic.co.uk/product-category/gig-tickets/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Tickets: £20 advance - with no booking fee - from Gig Tickets Archives - 14th Floor Music Distribution</a>
