Japanese power quartet Mono return with a fifth album, and their fourth for Temporary Residence. You Are There, engineered and mixed by Steve Albini, picks up the formula where he and the band left off on Walking Cloud and Deep Red Sky, Flag Fluttered and the Sun Shined. Much has been made of Mono's engagement and deployment of dynamics. While it's true that earlier recordings paid homage to the band's collective heroes and influences, Mono have increasingly carved out their own terrain in composition, recording, and performance.

There are a lot of perceptions made about post-rock. Some call it pretentious, unapproachable, some even dare to call it dull. And the fans of the genre don't exactly help either, most of who slate the genre's critics, saying "They just don't get it". Either could be right, but what you cannot deny is that, with honesty and integrity, Mono have produced something so special here, that it could stun both critics and fans into silence. This is, in short the work of geniuses. You will not hear a more rewarding, challenging or uplifting record, all year. And for a good proportion of this album, that is true, but it's used to much more dramatic effect. When Mono do finally turn the amplifiers up, it is not just thoughtless noise blasted out for the sake of it. It is just as intelligent, emotional and theatrical as the quieter moments; this is not pretentious Space-rock. Everything that happens in this album happens for a reason.

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 it's being compared to other post rock bands such as Godspeed You! Black Emperor and other bands of the same genre because of their dark intriguing melodies. Their music tends to be a bit of simple but creates an extremely dark atmospheric melody filled with emotions flying all over head as you listen to it.
