No Monster Club

No Monster Club is the DIY indie pop project of Irish musician Bobby Aherne, also known as Dublin Duck Dispensary and Sir Bobby Jukebox.

Since their debut release in 2009, they have recorded a number of albums, split releases and EPs, alternating between a solo project and a full band.

The music video for their 2012 single La La Land was named as one of Nialler9's "50 best Irish music videos of all-time". They performed this single on Chic-a-Go-Go in 2013, performed a WFMU session in 2016, and have toured several times with The Polyphonic Spree.

An alternate version of their single Arms Across America was used as the theme song of The Alison Spittle Show podcast. Their 2015 single I've Retired was featured in the movie Let The Wrong One In. They contributed original music to the Dublin Fringe Festival musical Trial of the Centurys, and to the RTÉ Jr Radio series Nero's Class.

Musical style
According to AllMusic biographer Marcy Donelson, No Monster Club "merges retro-minded garage-pop and elements of lo-fi psychedelia with passionate performances and ever-present tunefulness".

In a review of 2016's I Feel Magic album, The Irish Times drew comparisons to the songwriting styles of Kevin Ayers, Syd Barrett and Nikki Sudden. In his 2019 book Perfect Sound Whatever, James Acaster called this album "A good old quirky bit of fun".

Some influences cited by the group include Animal Collective, Lionel Bart and ABBA.
