A Collaboration Between Instrumental Post-Rock Band Mono And Fellow Tokyo Native And Modern Electronic Composer World's End Girlfriend In 2006 They Released Palmless Prayer / Mass Murder Refrain A Five-Part Sojourn Of Neoclassical Grace And Luminescence That Defies Lazy Categorization. As Dark As The Bottom Of The Ocean And Nearly As Otherworldly "Palmless" Finds Mono Inhabiting A Magical World Previously Only Hinted At In Their Most Orchestral Compositions. Forgoing Their Tendency To Erupt Into Hellish Bursts Of Speaker-Destroying Noise Mono Instead Exhibits Remarkable Restraint Stretching Song Lengths Past The 15-Minute Mark Turning Subtle Crescendos Into Earth-Shaking Events. This Record Is A Miniature Panoramic View Of The Sea On An Eerily Still Day The Current Swaying At An Impossibly Lazy Pace And The Sound Of A Thousand Tiny Waves Crashing All At Once. read less
