Cock Sparrer - Two Monkeys | 90s Album Review
from Dig Me Out: 90s & 00s Rock · host Dig Me Out
Two Monkeys, the 1997 album by veteran punk band Cock Sparrer, blends old school British pub rock and Oi! with surprising melodic elements. Despite being released twenty-five years into their career, the album retains the raw energy of their early work, featuring socially conscious lyrics while tackling themes like working-class struggles and personal resilience. The production is cleaner than their classic albums, but it still maintains a gritty, pub-rock feel, though a few of the faster tracks could benefit from a remix due to overly-compressed and thin sounding drums.
