August:
14th: After about a week of waiting for reply's from bass players all over Melbourne we were a little anxious about finding a new Moneran to join the gang. Then when we least expected it, Ben, our old bass player from the original line-up in 2001 rocked up at our doorstep as he dose every now and again and It basically went like this: Tyson: So Ben Ben: Yep sure I love to join Monera! Well it didn't exactly go like that but it was close! So arent all you people glad that we have a new bass player.
We have had a couple of rehearsals with Ben and allready written some new material that is guarantied to move your inards!

July:
8th: For the last 2 Months we have been concentrating on writing new songs and getting new ideas for our live and recorded sounds. If you haven't allready read the update on the home page, then you would't know that Phil has left Monera due to other music directions he is taking. This leaves us with one less musician. We are still rehearsing, writing and performing all our songs as our normal 3 peice line-up, Yet Justin and I (Ty) have decided to both play guitar parts (due to the recent aquisition of our new BC.Rich Guitars. "Warlock" & "Beast").
So basicly we need all the bass players in Melbourne that are interested to ask if they can join MONERA - HARCORE METAL!
If you are a bass player and you do wanna join just give us an E-mail or give our guestbook a visit!
