Sounds Like
"Pure Southern Metal Oklahoma-style"--Lance Lopez
The first thing to hit me in the grill when "You Used To Be" started playing was the thought of a Southern Rock style band with a kick ass attitude that brings a heavy metal feel.
"Nightmare" on the other hand is like a phsychadelic 60's style juiced up in that same way which blends the beauty of crunchy metal.
"Instro" is a very cool grooving track that gets the head bobbing and foot tapping while it plays. Very well done! All in all, I'd say Monkey Fist has a very refreshing and unique style which I really enjoy."

"Monkey Fist is a hard hitting, in your face band. These guys deliver powerful groove rhythms and intense beer guzzling, straight edged rock and roll that will keep you on your feet with a drink in your hand! The band was formed in the spring of 2006, a collaboration of the 3 bands all four members were in previously (Hezery, Funk Brothers, & the Bad Tan Jet Fuel Band). The band is currently playing live shows, and I won't be missing ANY of them!!"-Adrienne West
Monkey Fist is one of Northeast Oklahoma's
most popular rock bands. Formed in the spring of
2006, this hard rock band quickly became a local
favorite in the bar scene in and around the four
state area. These guys bring record turnouts to
local bars each and every time they play, and now
intend to do so regionally, which will be no
problem for this band.
Monkey Fist has played
along side such popular national acts including
the Wes Jeans Band, Six Foot Landing, Lance Lopez
and more. Monkey Fist delivers straight-edged, modern rock
originals mixed with a southern rock influence. Although
they have tons of original music, they also throw
into the mix some amazing sounding covers by
artists including Lynyrd Skynyrd, ZZ Top, Judas
Priest, and more modern acts like Pantera,
Alice in Chains, and Black Label Society.
