The Monks

When asked how they wanted to sound Eddie Shaw answered: "Just imagine the sound of the Titanic scraping along an iceberg". They were 5 GIs stationed in Germany in the early 60s, who got rid of conventional rock n roll structures, focusing mainly on rythm and not melody. Some even call them the first punk band.
