This CD took me a few listens to get into with it seeming in the first occasion like bland 80's pop knocked off in a week, I mean the synths and stuff are a little weird for the Dandys you know and at first 'You were the last high' was like the only...high on the record and I was like OH NOOO what is going on here but now I am totally hooked by this super hip sound, it's like the Beloved and has a CRAZY cover of an unzipped banana like in space or something like a Warhol pic for NOW and actually I wonder why it's taken this long to have that kind of reference I mean I don't know whether it's good timing or what but anyway the music is still THEM you know with Courtney Taylor-Taylor's tongue-in-cheekiness, it's great, and with Duran Duran people too, wow, Plan A featuring LeBon LeBon, that Plan A song being a real groovy hit but then it's the next one 'The Dope' that kickstarts the album with its funky funky sound, then YOU KNOW you are in the monkey house man and you will keep swinging right through til you come in burned. 'Hit Rock Bottom' hits rock bottom with it being just T-Rex re-vamped but other than that and tracks 1, 2 and 8 I JUST LOVE this cool new dandy, Dandy vibe. BUY IT NOW YOU WILL GO BANANAS FOR THIS SPACE MONKEY MUSIC.

So how do you follow up an album like 13 tales? an album that mixes rock, country and western, disco, funk, perfect melodies and sheer intelligence?
Simple, you rope in the keyboard player from Duran Duran, keep the same pop sensibilities with wicked lyrics and irony and go electro.
As mad as it sounds it works and damn does it work a treat.
With so many guitar bands and the huge emphasis on everyone of the having 'The' in the name its nice to see a band as good as The Dandys continue to stand out loud and proud from the crowd with a collection of songs that may take a few listens but soon manage to crawl under your skin and mark their mark.
You Come In Burned is a 7 minute epic while in a perfect world the Evan Dando co-written You Were The Last High would be number one all summer.
Monkey House is a brave move by a band that so easily could have continued to make guitar driven music, instead they have given fans and critics alike a new sound to dig their teeth into - expect a little distain from the 'cool' press but don't be too surprised to see Martin Gore and Vince Clarke on the new Strokes cd in six months time when the rest of the world catches up with The Dandys.
Put simply, do your ears a treat, turn off The Strokes and The Stripes and put on The Dandy Warhols.

This album is amazing to the tee.Slightly different from the rest(dandys rule ,ok ,, come down and 13 tales from urban boheimia) but still very them and quite original.
the album has quite an 80s feel to it, and the dandys have definatly pulled it of.
what kind of music exactly have the dandy warhols made? good question...i would say ...alternitive electic inde pop rock which is quite a mouth full i know but it is simply a mix.
i seen the band live to and the were awesume .

Fine and Dandy
The Dandy's fourth longplayer and their first primarily electro album is a real treat; funky and acerbic, it builds on their previous work and takes it in a different direction. Read more

Thank You Nick Rhodes
I sought this album out because of Nick Rhodes and Simon Le Bon's involvement - I am after all an incurable Duran fan. I love it! Read more

Nothing spectacular here
The Dandy Warhols are destined to be one of the bands known as 'the ones who did that song from the advert' (the song in question being 'Bohemian Like You' from the Vodaphone... Read more

we used to be great
Well, I guess it couldn't last. After three brilliant albums, tongue firmly in cheek guitar trance music Velvet Underground style, the Dandies are running on empty. Read more

Almost the best thing since sliced bread
Having acquired the full catalogue of Dandy Warhol albums over the last three years, I can certainly say that they're always willing to try something new. Read more

Not their best effort
This album takes some getting used to in contrast to their previous efforts, which are all quite staggeringly brilliant (in my not so humble opinion)! Read more

Fine and dandy...
This is my first "experience" of The Dandy Warhols. What a cool album. Very retro, hear those clanking Moogs and Hammonds. Read more

A welcome departure from the norm
Welcome to the Monkey House is a welcome departure from the groove the Dandies seemed to be stuck in. Read more

Listen to this a few times
It improves on listening, which is shown by the fact that it is the first three tracks that grow on you first. Read more
