Light In The Attic is ecstatic to present the Monks recorded legacy through two lavishly packaged and lovingly researched reissues (available on CD, LP, and digital download): The Early Years 1964-1965 as well as their landmark studio album Black Monk Time. Numerous period photographs (many unseen) and an extensive two-part essay by Canadian music journalist Kevin Howes (Jamaica-Toronto series) accompany both releases and tell the Monks story like it has never been told. Bonus material dating back to pre-Monks Torquays and up to post Black Monk Time 45s are also included.

"Their melodies were pop destructive and must be played to your younger brother"
- Jack White, The White Stripes

"The Monks will always be a great band"
- Colin Greenwood, Radiohead

"Monastic Madness - Hard Driving Garage Rock!"
- Krist Novoselic, Nirvana

"This is a damned enjoyable slightly kinky 60's garage record"
- Iggy Pop
