"...mankind originated from a bunch of deranged ex-monkeys with a propensity for drink.
So raise your glass and think of the fall from the grace of the trees, the descent of monkey into man ... monkey tasted the fruit of the tree and devolution began." -- salamander
"...can get aggressive in a make-you-shake-your-ass-while-head-bangin' kinda way. A medley of electronic, hip-hop, experimental, and punk rock influences. The Ex-Monkeys wield software, turntables and an 808 as if they were W.A.D.S (Weapons of Ass Destruction!) The result is bass and beat-heavy, with nice noise and crunch." -- them Spazz folk
"Aided by deft turntable-ism, Raleigh duo The ExMonkeys mixes space-age electrojunk into beat-heavy trip-hop, swinging from branches of desolate down-tempo to full-on party anthems." -- Spencer Griffith, Independent Weekly
"gear heavy jams careen from blissed trip-hop to aggressive beat-based anthems without notice. At its best, the Ex-Monkeys make music meant for heroics" -- Grayson Currin, Independent Weekly
"the ExMonkeys made a huge fuckin sound" -- Juan Huevos, briefcaserockers.com
"Ex-Monkeys are 2/3rds of the late-90s trip-hop band Friend Side Monkey, and as of now, at least, it's safe to say that they've picked up more or less where FSM left off. Too soon to know what the future holds." -- Ross Grady, trianglerock.com
