Thank you to all of our friends, family and fans for all of your support over the years! Without you- it’d just be us….
So- Monkeys In Space have been promising new music and a resurgence in the scene for sometime .. We have an 18+ song record in the can and have just been.. well dealing with LIFE… too much to get our project back off the ground.
I am proud to say that we finally, and for real this time.. are back in the full swing of things and we will be releasing a brand new single called “Consumer” in February 2017- a song that sums up where our heads have been for sometime. We will be posting a new show date soon- an acoustic set in Los Angeles, CA mid-February.. We hope to see all of our old friends!
Much Love and thank you for all of your continued support,
Johnny Rukkus & Monkeys In Space

Monkeys! It’s been a long time a’comin, but we finally released a new song off of our new album “Kill Your Past.” We are proud to introduce “Blackout,” a high-energy power-pop rock song that screams “f**k you” to corporate media – the 24 hour non-news cycle that aims to distract our minds and redirect our hearts to things that plain don’t. matter. Oh, Everybody’s Talkin’ alright, and it’s about time we stop talking and start SHOUTING.
“They say we’re tearing apart at the seams. That’s not what I see, I still believe in WE.”
With most of the US entrenched in snow we thought.. What better time to re-release our most popular single from our debut album “Flying Under the Influence.” With the new album, “Kill Your Past,” right around the corner.. get caught up on all of the best Monkeys In Space tunes.. Kick it off with “Weather the Storm!”
Check out the Monkeys songwriters, J & Johnny as they demo a new song off of the upcoming release “Kill Your Past!” Enjoy the raw and acoustic… stripped-down version of the “keep ur head up” anthem-ed tune that truly represents a reoccurring and underlying theme prevalent throughout the entire new record.. this one is appropriately titled: “Believe..“
“Stand Tall, Stand Proud. Stay Strong, Stay Loud..”
We would like to hugely apologize for the “Kill Your Past” delays! Mixing of the gnarly 18 song line up took weeks longer then expected and set our whole production schedule back- We are incredibly embarrassed to have to postpone its release for the 3rd time but on the flip side- we are totally stoked on the amount of hard work and dedication that has gone into every inch of the new album. It is most definitely worth the wait!

Its OFFICIAL! The name of the upcoming Monkeys In Space full length album has finally been announced.. As this record has morphed into a nostalgic blend of old bangers and an all grown up touch of new… so much… be it good or bad, has happened between now and our last release- Flying Under the Influence. We feel we have truly grown as individuals, as musicians and as a band.. for better or for worse is still up for debate. We can all agree that the chance of a better life can always be found in the ever so changing future we will soon enough realize. With this- we feel “Kill Your Past” as it has been officially named, best represents all the euphoric times and the ugly in addition to that constant drive to improve upon ones self. “Kill Your Past” can be taken in both the figurative and literal sense as we have realized it is a necessary thing to leave your past behind if you are ever to grow and fully embrace this constantly evolving space within which we occupy.. and for some (myself included) this can be a most difficult thing.. At any point on any given day you might find yourself coming face to face with a previous version of yourself, be it bumping into old friends, having dinner with your over critical parents.. walking away from that same old argument with your significant other.. could you Kill Your Past- To Save Your Future?
02/26/2014 – “Kill Your Past, Save Your FUTURE.”
Monkeys In Space finally announce the title of their upcoming 2014 release and give a little bit of insight into how this record found its name. Get ready Monkeys the new album “Kill Your Past” is right around the corner!
