The musical style of The Bulletmonks has been described as rock and metal mixed with blues. The press has referred to their music as "Mosh 'n' Roll"[3] and they have been compared to Led Zeppelin,[1] The Answer,[1] Airbourne[3] and AC/DC.[3] Andy Powell from Wishbone Ash features as a guest guitarist in the song Under the Black Sun.[4]

The band received encouraging reviews for their debut album Weapons of Mass Destruction[4][5] which was released on March 30, 2009.[6]

The Bulletmonks toured throughout 2010 and have supported bands like WASP, UFO, D-A-D and Volbeat and co-headlined Hamburgs Welt Astra Tag Festival in 2010 in front of an estimated crowd of 48,000. On January 20, 2012, they released their second studio album Royal Flush on the Titanic.

In winter 2012/2013 guitarist Shark Shooster joined the band, while Tyler Voxx decided to concentrate on singing. In summer 2013 the Bulletmonks recorded their 3rd album which was released in September 2014. In the middle of the recording, the band parted ways with their drummer M.Dogg, and replaced him by L.A. Music Academy Student Bristle Brush Johnson, who played with Shark Shooster in Nürnbergs Willie Tanner before they split. The band went on extensive touring with the new material in the second half of 2014.

Although the band never officially split, they haven't been active since their last tour in 2016. It is rumored that they are working on new material in 2020.

In contrast to most mid-ranged Chromebooks however, the Pinebook Pro comes with an IPS 1080p 14″ LCD panel, a premium magnesium alloy shell, 64/128GB of eMMC storage* (more on this later – see asterisk below), a 10,000 mAh capacity battery and the modularity / hackability that only an open source project can deliver – such as the unpopulated PCIe m.2 NVMe slot (an optional feature which requires an optional adapter). The USB-C port on the Pinebook Pro, apart from being able to transmit data and charge the unit, is also capable of digital video output up-to 4K at 60hz.
