Holy Ground: NYC Live with the Wordless Music Orchestra

by MONO

supported by

Kirk Gauthier What an absolutely stellar performance! MONO is supported by a 24-piece orchestra that not only recreates but fully expands on their studio work. This whole concert is utterly mesmerizing and should be in the collection of anyone and everyone who has even a passing interest in post-rock. This truly is a masterpiece. Favorite track: Ashes in the Snow.

The Midnight Toker. C'mon its MONO,live with an orchestra. It's beautiful and brilliant ! Favorite track: Burial at Sea.

Judy Humphries Measured, dramatic; melancholy, ecstatic; maleficent, magnificent MONO. Favorite track: Burial at Sea.

about

To celebrate their 10th anniversary as a band - and the release of their acclaimed new album Hymn To The Immortal Wind - MONO and Temporary Residence Limted organized a once-in-a-lifetime concert in New York City. In association with the esteemed Wordless Music Series, MONO super-sized their already legendary live show with a 24-piece orchestra. Painstakingly recorded and mixed by famed producer Matt Bayles (Mastodon, ISIS, Minus The Bear), Holy Ground brilliantly captures every moment of whispered calm and breathless beauty with patient clarity. Included with the album is a stunning live DVD documenting the entire 90-minute performance, featuring live orchestral versions of many of MONO's most beloved songs. For a decade fans have clamored for a MONO album that matches the catharsis of their infamous live shows, and Holy Ground overwhelmingly delivers.
