The Sunday Reeds The Sunday Reeds latest release, Drive You Mad , has been one of our favourite releases here at Munster for 2020. A brilliant combination of Cramps' style, 60's garage, with elements of Riot Grrl , Punk, and Shoe Gaze. It’s an amazing mix of different genres spread out over six tracks.
