Over the years The Monsters recorded 7 albums, several singles and ep\u2019s and apeared on countless compilations. The record \u201eYouth Against Nature\u201c was recorded in the now famous Toe Rag Studios (London) by Liam Watson and Robert Butler (Miracle Workers). \u201eI See Dead People\u201c came with a 1000-piece puzzle, booklet, sticker and button and was allready sold out during the tour.There`s also a limited edition of the 2011 record \u201e\u2026pop up yours\u201c, the Box is made of solid wood with the Monsters integrated as a wildly popular sliding puzzle.<br \/>\nThe Monsters appear on Voodoo Rhythm Records, Switzerland. The label is famous for it\u2019s taste and style, as it is for the beautiful artwork. Voodoo Rhythm is run by Beat-Man, who (by accident\u2026) is also the singer and guitar player of The Monsters. Beat-Man played \u2013 and still plays \u2013 in other projects called Lightning Beat-Man, Reverend Beat-Man, Die Zorros and some more. As a one-man-band he toured all of europe, played venues such as Jazz Festival Montreux, Frat Shack, Dour Festival, Eurocene and Las Vegas Grind (USA) on the same bill with acts like Dick Dale, Public Enemy, Ramones, Prince, Rammstein, Bob Log III and more\u2026.<br \/>\nGO SEE THEM LIVE ON STAGE\u2026.
