Mono - For My Parents album flac

MONO play the Horseshoe Wednesday (September 12). See listing. You want epic? How about swooping, melodramatic string section parts all over the place. There isn't much of a journey to be taken on For My Parents; the music doesn't develop, darken, or tell a story so much as it expands and deflates like a balloon.

For My Parents isn't likely to go down with your Slow Riot for New Zerø Kanadas or Spiderlands, but there are times when it seems to break new ground.

Those albums showcased Mono's sound in transition from its thundering post-rock origins

On latest album For My Parents, however, it remains as gorgeous as ever. Where some of their post-rock contemporaries like Godspeed You! Black Emperor might prefer alternately overwhelming and sometimes bleak approaches, or Grails might take a trip into more psychedelic headspaces, Mono offers a slow moving journey toward gracefully gigantic climaxes. For My Parents is a proper soundtrack for either coping with a crippling loss, or standing on top of the world in triumph. Going on 14 years as a band, Mono continues to firmly stake their position as house band to life-changing circumstances.
