Monsula

In the later half of the '80s and early '90s there were a lot of good bands coming out of the San Francisco East Bay area. One of the main things that facilitated the growth of the East Bay Scene was 924 Gilman Street, an all ages, punk run venue that became a hub of activity for the area after their first show New Years Eve of 1986. Monsula formed in 1988. They played what would have been called at the time "East Bay Pop Punk" which was really a mix of poppy melodic west coat punk rock and early DC post-hardcore bands.
