Release


Teen Babes from Monsanto was released in 1984 on Gasatanka Records and Filmworks, on 12-inch vinyl disc[nb 1] and Compact Cassette.[nb 1][nb 2]


Critical reception


AllMusic critic John Dougan said of the album, "The title says it all. Speedy, sloppy pop loaded with fuzzed-up guitars and whiny vocals. Mostly covers (Stooges, Kiss, Bowie), it's a great little statement of purpose from these '70s hard-rock babes-turned-adults."[1]


Reissues


All seven songs were included on the Insipid Vinyl label compilation CD Trance: Australian Tour 1992, released in 1992.[nb 3]

In June 2015, the record was reissued as a full-length LP under the title Teen Babes from Monsanto: Versión Especial,[nb 4][nb 5] a numbered limited edition of 250 copies, self-released by the band to commemorate the record's 31st anniversary, featuring three bonus cover versions and alternate double-fronted cover art designed by Jonathan Krop.[2]
