This split 7" brings together two celebrated acts — The Gossip and The Raincoats — for a compelling tribute to the avant-garde proto-punk band The Monks. Both tracks, "Drunken Maria" and "Monk Chant," were originally contributed to Silver Monk Time - A Tribute to the Monks, a compilation that earned recognition as compilation of the year in Wire Magazine in 2007.
Released in 2009 by Play Loud!, this vinyl single pairs The Gossip's raw, energetic interpretation with The Raincoats' distinctively experimental approach, making for a fascinating contrast between two iconic acts united by their admiration for The Monks. It's a rewarding listen for fans of both bands as well as anyone drawn to the broader history of underground and alternative rock.
