S5-Ep2: Michael Monroe - Not Faking It!
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
This week in The Gutter, we dive headfirst into the life and career of the legendary Hanoi Rocks frontman; Michael Monroe. From the streets of Helsinki to the stages of the world, Monroe carved out a career that was never about playing it safe. He was punk before punk was fashionable, glam before glam got polished, and a rock star before the word “rock star” became a marketing strategy.
We trace the rise of Hanoi Rocks, the band's chaotic journey from Finland to international cult heroes, and the musicians who helped create their unmistakable sound and style. Along the way, we get into Monroe's friendships and musical relationships with some of rock's biggest names, his years in New York, his solo career, and the many twists, turns and near-misses that have made his story so damn entertaining.
