2021 repress - 2LP, gatefold sleeve, vinyl comes with an etching on D-Side

Through echoes of beautiful, gentle soft strings, and the sudden surge of sound explosions, MONO delivers their ninth album, Requiem For Hell. Unlike their previous album, The Last Dawn / Rays of Darkness - which re-visited much of their earlier sound - MONO once again introduce strings, showing further dynamics and a wider range of colour in their sounds. Written entirely by guitarist Takaakira 'Taka' Goto, the five songs that comprise Requiem For Hell perfectly portray the signature orchestration-like range and dynamics of MONO. The 2xLP vinyl version of Requiem For Hell shows an engraving, a curled up human foetus. The album was produced, recorded and mixed by Steve Albini at Electrical Audio in Chicago, and mastered by Bob Weston.
