Amplifest 2014: Mono “The Last Dawn” + “Rays of Darkness” listening sessions

Artwork by André Coelho

Japanese post-rock luminaries Mono will be back later this year with not one but two new records. ‘The Last Dawn’ and ‘Rays of Darkness’ mark a new direction for the band, with both records working as two sides of the same coin: ‘The Last Dawn’ is joyous and hopeful, while ‘Rays of Darkness’ is the bleakest music ever put out by Mono. At Amplifest, listening sessions for both records will be held at Hard Club’s Mainfloor while we wait to have the band here again… hopefully soon.

Os mestres japoneses do pós-rock Mono estarão de volta ainda este ano com não um, mas dois novos registos. ‘The Last Dawn’ e ‘Rays of Darkness’ marcam uma nova direcção para a banda, com ambos os trabalhos a funcionarem como dois lados da mesma moeda: ‘The Last Dawn ‘ transpira luz e esperança, enquanto’ Rays of Darkness” carrega a mais pesarosa música alguma vez composta pelos Mono. No Amplifest, e enquanto ansiamos pelo retorno da banda a Portugal – em breve, esperamos – o Mainfloor do Hard Club receberá ‘listening sessions’ exclusivas para ambos os discos.
