MILKY WIMPSHAKE is the other band that Pete from RED MONKEY does. Please note- this is not a side project! MILKY WIMPSHAKE has been together for almost 7 years and have released over 10 singles and a full-length on Slampt Records. This is their Troubleman debut.

The band takes their cues from 70's power pop gods the BUZZCOCKS and political folk luminaries BILLY BRAGG and PHIL OCHS. Not as "in your face" political as RED MONKEY, MILKY WIMPSHAKE take the romantic approach to politics without being emo or any other sappy drivel. Pete's songs are super catchy and his vocals are raspy, yet melodic-bringing to mind David Gedge of THE WEDDING PRESENT at times. The lyrics are smart and to the point. These songs are a call to arms! Protest songs the whole family can sing along to!
