Mono
Under the Pipal Tree

High times and Post Rock, a combination that works brilliantly. Like smoked scamorza cheese on Spanish salami. Like a smooth Camel right after a shot of Four Roses.

This is a difficult time, the first heats are arriving, the first mugginess, and in the city it’s panic. There are those who still have a lot of work and those who still have a lot to study - some have both - so in their free time, some people stay at home lounging on the couch since they have the air conditioner, some go to a park searching for the coolest spot (which is still hot) and come back furious, having only gotten a few mosquito bites, and finally, there are those who get themselves some good White Widow, roll it, create a little breeze at home, start Under the Pipal Tree, and sit quietly to smoke... Who will come out on top? Who will beat the great heat? I only know that the last person (in order of mention) starts to feel good in less than four minutes, thanks to the "fresh" sound of this work from the Japanese (no, it hasn't just been released, rather, it is their first Full-Length), the feeling is like a chilly shiver, and thanks to the effect of the WW, it seems to him as if he's lying on a sunbed on Mount Fuji, and who could be better off than him...? At this point, the guy starts to act cocky and takes off his t-shirt, and not (anymore) concerned about the currents, starts to feel cold and sneeze, but the cold lasts little, the guitarists who play sitting down know this is how it ends and just at the right time, they place the fiery solo that brings him back to the right temperature... there isn't even any vocalist to mess things up, it’s just music, and this is how it goes for the entire duration of the album.

Ah, plus the bass is played by a beautiful girl... An incentive if they happen to play in your area...

I know very well this review isn't serious, but this is my way of understanding music.

EVERY RECORD HAS ITS REASON!!!
