Junk Monkeys – Soul Cakes – Vinyl Record

Junk Monkeys – Soul Cakes is an album by the American rock band Junk Monkeys. Released in 1988, it is their second studio album and showcases their brand of energetic and gritty rock and roll.

Soul Cakes features a collection of high-energy tracks with a raw and garage rock sound. The album is characterized by punchy guitar riffs, driving rhythms, and catchy hooks. Junk Monkeys’ music draws influence from punk, garage rock, and alternative rock, creating a blend of edgy and infectious rock tunes.

Notable tracks from the album include “Same Old Story,” “Back on My Feet Again,” “Suburban Life,” and “Plain Jane.” These songs exhibit the band’s knack for delivering catchy and memorable rock anthems with a gritty edge.

Soul Cakes received positive reviews from critics upon its release, with praise for its energetic and raucous sound. While the album didn’t achieve mainstream commercial success, it garnered a dedicated following among fans of alternative and garage rock.

Formed in the mid-’80s by singer/guitarist David Bierman, guitarist Dave Boutette, bassist Kevin Perri, and drummer Dan Allen, Dearborn, MI’s Junk Monkeys evolved from a previous band named Mystery Girls, and cut their teeth in Detroit clubs before finding an unlikely home with L.A.-based Metal Blade Records.

Unlikely because Junk Monkey albums like 1989’s Soul Cakes, 1990s Five Star Fling, and 1992’s Bliss featured hook-laden power pop/punk inspired by ’70s legends like Cheap Trick, Big Star, and the Flamin’ Groovies; but not so far-fetched when one remembers Metal Blade had also signed the Goo Goo Dolls around the same time.

In any case, just as the latter only managed to score mainstream success towards the end of their relationship with the label, the Junk Monkeys too failed to find an audience beyond Michigan and Midwestern borders during their tenure at Metal Blade, eventually departing to record a final live album in 1995’s Follies Review before going their separate ways.
