2008-05-19 12:54:00 by Captain Obvious in Captain Obvious
...Mono describes Tokyos premiere batch of post-rock virtuosos. Their sound is too elegant to be mistaken for Pelican, yet too rich and evocative to be confused with Explosions in the Sky. Their newest release, Gone (which technically isnt new at all), chronicles the bands EPs, spanning their 2000 formation to 2007s The Phoenix Tree . Most of...

MONO - Hey, You (2000) [rated 2/5 by Juliovp]

2008-02-01 21:51:13 by Editor in Progarchives.com (Progressive rock and related latest reviews)
 
...Mono isn't the best star for this enormous band. This ep has a good sound, but more of the songs are like a loooong post rock jam. I don't hate jams, i don't hate post rock also but Mono sometimes lose their way and it's all repetition. You can certainly see the potencial of the band, the power but for a start on listening Mono it could be a...

MONO - You Are There (2006)

2008-02-24 00:15:06 by Editor in Progarchives.com (Progressive rock and related latest reviews)
Mono is possibly one of the best post rock acts there is and You are There is the proof to support that statement. You are There is an extremely emotional album that has a melancholic feel to the music as Mono is not your typical post rock band yet its being compared to other post rock bands such as Godspeed You! Black Emperor and other bands of...

Mono In VCF (2007)

2007-12-06 15:57:00 by Captain Obvious in Captain Obvious
...Mono In VCF's sound as "Drifting leisurely in space somewhere between psychedelic Beatles and Massive Attack." So considering my own musical tastes, which do not include either the Beatles (I respect them, but I'm not a "fan".... Blasphemy, I know) or Massive Attack, or anything remotely "psychedelic," I wasn't expecting to react in any way...

2008-07-29 14:50:43 by Chris Gray in Houstoned Rocks
...Mono/photo by Daniel Kramer Over to Dean's for Yoko Mono . I have to admit that I have missed the rise of "Rock en Espanol" in Houston, mostly because my Espanol is extremely poor, but thanks to Yoko Mono, my eyes have been opened. What a great band. My notes from the set were mostly cryptic scribblings of superlatives Yoko Mono is really...
