If you were to describe the music of MONO as “heavy,” chances are I’d laugh so hard my coffee would shoot out my nose. That being said, this album leans very heavily on the neo-classical side and makes this album sound “lighter” than others. But this album also leans perhaps more heavily on the melancholy (due to the more prominent neo-classical influences). Overall, this album feels very reflective and warm, like the embrace of a loved one. Kirk Gauthier
