The Monks Bad Habits 1980 Canada 1st Press VG+/VG+
THE MONKS - BAD HABITS
Get ready for a brilliant, high-octane blast of classic British new wave with Bad Habits, the legendary 1979 debut album by The Monks. Formed as a satirical side-project by seasoned members of the prog-rock band Strawbs, The Monks accidentally created a power-pop masterpiece packed with infectious hooks, buzzing guitars, and tongue-in-cheek punk-rock attitude. Featuring their massive international chart-toppers like "Nice Legs Shame About Her Face" and the infectious, fast-paced anthem "Drugs In My Pocket," this record is a masterclass in late-70s radio-rock perfection. A beloved staple for collectors of pub rock, early new wave, and punchy power-pop history, Bad Habits is pure, unadulterated musical fun from start to finish.
