Monsters on Maple Street

Monsters on Maple Street is an EP released on September 10, 2005 by The Smyrk. The band had taken its time with songcraft until working with Eric Rachel (Saves the Day, Dillinger Escape Plan) to produce its debut EP, Monsters on Maple Street. The self-released record garnered praise from venerable sources such as absolutepunk.net, which said, "The Smyrk color outside the lines. I have never heard rock and roll like this before…Diverting and recreating the core ingredients to rock is a grand endeavor. But every once in a while, I will hear a band that takes a risk with the limits of rock and roll—and, oh is it good.”
