MONO "Hymn To The Immortal Wind" dbl LP

http://stores.channeladvisor.com/vinylhome/Items/656605314815

Just in time for their 10-year anniversary, MONO return with their fifth studio album, the absolutely massive Hymn To The Immortal Wind. 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 face-melting set-up. While Hymn continues to mine the cinematic drama inherent in all of MONO's music, the dynamic shifts now come more from dark-to-light instead of quiet-to-loud. The maturity to balance these elements so masterfully has become MONO's strongest virtue - save for perhaps their uncanny ability to sound every bit like a plane crashing into a Beethoven concert.

Temporary Residence has been so kind as to provide a test pressing for one our test pressing contests. Purchase a copy of this album and be entered to win. Good luck. We should have vinyl around the middle of April.

Also, friends of mine have told me that this is one of the most epic instrumental albums ever recorded.

i'm really looking forward to this release

[akross]

I am patiently waiting for my vinyl to arrive, I have been avoiding the leak with success so far.

I am bummed that the ship date got pushed out 2 weeks, but this is going to be my top of the year for sure.

[silentgods]

love love love this band.

[geezfools]

listening to the leak now. Never knew about mono, but randomly heard a few songs on myspace three days ago and liked what I heard. Had a friend grab me a few albums and gonna take a listen. The price on this isn't too bad either, makes it that more tempting.

[googlemyass]

woah, real music? about time.

[flood]

i've ran the PA for two shows for these guys... fucking face melting music.

Over $30 PPD for me, but it's arguably my favorite Mono album, quite possibly the nicest variant out there, and /500. You win this one, Newbury.

[jrodan]

just make sure you only buy 5 or less!

[rooks]

Does it come with the story cards though? Dammit. I don't think I need this record twice, btu those are nice colors.

 

 

 

EDIT: "save for perhaps their uncanny ability to sound every bit like a plane crashing into a Beethoven concert."

 

The fuck MONO song sounds anything like that?

[xfactor675]

virgil, are you going to be getting this in black?

[kentin31]

The colors are gorgeous. Enough to make me buy a second copy

[fish]

I'm pretty sure that is nearly 2x what it cost me when it came out in similar colors that included the 7 prints. great record though for anyone who doesn't have it though.

[dufman86]

Given that my colored first press is warped to the point of being hardly playable I might have to jump on this. Beautiful.
