Monica Sex ( Hebrew מוניקה סקס) is an Israeli rock band that is very popular in Israel , especially among young people.

Their songs are mainly characterized by catchy melodies and lyrics. In addition to the frequent broadcast on Israeli radio , this probably also contributes to the fact that her songs are very well known in Israel. The band is considered one of the most important Israeli rock groups.

Band history

The band was formed in Tel Aviv in 1993. It was named after a female bassist with whom Sobol had previously played in a band called "Pag". Sobol, the band leader , wrote some songs and the band started their studio work.

Her first album, Wounds and Kisses ( Hebrew פצעים ונשיקות Ptza'im veNeschikot ) was released in 1995, but initially it was not a great commercial success. However, shortly after the album was released, their song Maka Afora (German: gray battle or gray battle ) was chosen as the title song of the Israeli cult series Florentin , which helped them achieve their big breakthrough. Other songs by the group were increasingly being played on the radio. In the course of the great success, Jossi Hamami left the band due to artistic differences. This tried - even then in the current line-up - to gain a foothold in the United States , with Red from now on played the bass. They recorded some songs in the States, but did not have the success they had hoped for with their music and decided to break up the group. While Sobol and Rot returned to Israel, Tsur initially stayed in the United States.

After having made "comeback appearances" from time to time in 1999, the group decided in 2001 to re-establish themselves with the current line-up. They released their second album Open Relationships ( Hebrew יחסים פתוחים Jachasim petuchim ), which quickly achieved a level of notoriety similar to that of their debut album six years earlier. Most recently, the band released their newest album, Darlings or Favorite Animals ( Hebrew חיות מחמד Chajot Machmad ).
