I do believe I got a taste of this new single when I saw Bristol’s premier symphonic grunge collective, Life in Mono at Bradford Roots, and was held spellbound…..
And I’m not usually in for Seattle Sound, but Life in Mono are the kind of layer-building specialists who could turn Björn, Benny, Agnetha and Anni-Frid into ripped jeans and flannel shirt-wearing grunge kid crowd surfers! In an Evanescence fashion they’ll take three minutes to build the ambience then bring the guitars crashing, and the result is sublimely encapsulating.
Filled to the brim with brooding noir drama and sensually immersive grunge, the secret is out, Life in Mono is gorgeously intertwined enchantment, and this is one finely-produced tune which expands to fill the room, as choranaptyxic as the Occamy, for want of a less Pottermaniac analogy!
