Iron Monkey

During their brief tenure Iron Monkey was frequently referred to as England's answer to Eyehategod, and with good reason, as the Monkey's sludgecore riffing and hardcore vocals slotted perfectly alongside EHG and other NOLA bands. They broke up around August 1999, with Dean Berry and Doug Daiziel moving on to Dukes Of Nothing and John Morrow working in a band called Murder One up to his death in 2002. Founders Jim Rushby and Steve Watson resurrected the band in 2017, with a comeback album scheduled for an October release.

Recent album: Spleen & Goad, released on April 5, 2024.
