‘Requiem for Hell’ is the third track on the album of the same name – Mono’s ninth studio album. The track is the centre piece to this latest album from the iconic Japanese post-rock pioneers. The full version of this track clocks in at a little over seventeen minutes, showing that the band remains unafraid to explore their own boundaries – and those of their listeners. This edited version, is an indicator of what you can expect from the rest of the album – atmospheric, sweeping soundscapes of uplifting and emotionally charged compositions.

Mono recorded ‘Requiem for Hell’ with renowned producer, Steve Albini (Nirvana, Pixies, Mogwai, The Jesus Lizard) a man who is also not afraid of exploring boundaries. This was the fourth time that Albini has worked with the band and last year his own band Shellac embarked upon their first tour of Japan in twenty three years, co-headlining with Mono.

Mono themselves will be heading out on tour again shortly as they co headline with French avant-metallers, Alcest. Be sure to check them out on one of the dates below, but for now, settle back and take it slow and easy with Mono’s latest offering.
