Teen Babes from Monsanto

Teen Babes from Monsanto is an EP of cover songs released by American rock band Redd Kross.

Release
Teen Babes from Monsanto was released in 1984 on Gasatanka Records and Filmworks, on 12-inch vinyl disc and Compact Cassette.

It was their first release after changing their name from Red Cross to Redd Kross due to a threatened lawsuit from the International Red Cross.

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."

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

In June 2015, the record was reissued as a full-length LP under the title Teen Babes from Monsanto: Versión Especial, 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.
