just in time for their 10-year anniversary, mono return with their fifth studio album, the absolutely massive hymn to the immortal wind. after touring almost non-stop for five years, the band hibernated for over a year to focus solely on writing hymn. the result is their most thoughtful and eclectic album to date. written and arranged with a hopeful, romantic narrative in mind, the songs string together like chapters in an epic love story. the music is naturally majestic, with mono's trademark wall of noise crashing beautifully against the largest chamber orchestra the band has ever enlisted. the instrumentation is vast, incorporating strings, flutes, organ, piano, glockenspiel and tympani into their standard facemelting set-up. recorded to analog tape with long-time friend and producer steve albini.....release date: 23/03/2009
