Japanese art-metal, neo-classical, post rock instrumentalists play with a 24-piece orchestra. Catch them now as it’s likely these shores won’t see the band perform in this guise again for a long time.

Blurring the boundary between art-metal and neo-classical, Japanese post-rockers MONO, hailing from Tokyo, have long established themselves as the leading voice of epic majestic noise. For over 12 years in fact. Their instrumental compositions are powerful, sweeping studies in the limits of the musical spectrum; from rumbling subsonic lows to dizzying harmonic highs.

Over the years, they have developed their vast and beautiful noise into something entirely majestic. Their colossal orchestrations often incorporate strings, flutes, organ, piano, glockenspiel and tymphani as well as guitar and drums, balancing all elements masterfully with each new release and live performance.

Mono and The Holy Ground Orchestra performance is incredibly special as Mono will only perform in this capacity once every few years. So far they have performed it in Tokyo, Kuala Lumpur, and New York only. This promises to be a truly transcendental and unforgettable show.
