Metal Anarchy’s New Music Showcase: Q&A With Monkey Intrusion

Time for the next edition of Metal Anarchy’s “new music showcase,” the feature where I introduce you to artists that readers of this site may find interesting. This time I have a Q&A with Monkey Intrusion.

METAL ANARCHY: Tell me a little about your band:

MONKEY INTRUSION: Hi there, we are Monkey Intrusion an Italian hard rock band. We have Enrico J. Goti and Vincenzo Reina that share voices and guitars, Marco Bertoli play drums and Marco Plesnicar on bass.

METAL ANARCHY: Who are your main influences?

MONKEY INTRUSION: Cetainly Led Zeppelin are the first, but then we have a wide range of influences from Genesis to Guns N’ Roses, Soundgarden, Nirvana and some Megadeth too.

METAL ANARCHY: What is your latest release and why should readers of this site check it out?

MONKEY INTRUSION: The latest single is “Bad Love”. It’s an intriguing song that we think is truly immersive, full of different elements and bittersweet twists that we hope will keep the listeners curious till the last note. Overall we think that it represents what is our line of writing songs. We hope that will manifest in the full album that will be released in a couple of weeks.

METAL ANARCHY: What can people expect when they go to your live shows?

MONKEY INTRUSION: First of all a great energy. Also due to the fact that we don’t like to work massively in post-production you get the sound that you hear in our recordings plus the improvisations that change every gig through the interaction with the public.

METAL ANARCHY: Where do you see your band heading in 5 years?

MONKEY INTRUSION: Gigging around Europe while writing ever new songs!
