These creatures, which are similar to gorillas may have taken their banana milk possibly together with the constant stream of R&B, Northern Soul, 60's Pop and R'N'R. Because this is the only comprehensible reason in order to explain, why the sound of THE KONGSMEN follows just these music styles. But as to expect from such a bunch of wild gone apes, it is more rough, savage and crazy than the one from their human idols. Rude R&B meets Fratrock'N'Roll and 60's Punk, which is affected by the garage sound of the modern age.
THE KONGSMEN have a lasting relation to their conspecific, because songs like e. g. the dancefloor hit 'Karate Monkey' by Chubby Checker, the R&B all-time classic 'Chimpanzee' by COUNT YATERS, the funky Soul monster 'Can Your Monkey Do The Dog', which was arranged by numerous 60's Soul Bands like e. g. RUFUS THOMAS, the R&B scene hymn 'Monkey Men' by BABY HUE & THE BABYSITTERS or the Walt Disney classic to the correspondent film 'The Monkey's Uncle', played by THE BEACH BOYS & the exceptionally gifted ANNETTE FUNICELLO, speak for themselves.
