Tokyo’s Mono is a peculiar group. While most bands offer up their sincerest and most genuine recordings in their infancy and spend the rest of their careers trying desperately to rediscover their youthful energy, Mono's trajectory has been quite the opposite. This flourish of hopeful creativity was captured by Steve Albini in the form of the eight pieces that make up their third album Walking Cloud And Deep Red Sky, Flag Fluttered And The Sun Shined. More lush and orchestral than previous recordings, the album couples an overall slow-melting ambience with a thunderous drive that reaches far greater heights than the band’s earlier work.

2006 debut album from new British Indie hopefuls Vega 4, who NME says 'will give The Killers a run for their money'. Influenced by the music they grew up on, Vega 4 combine elements of New Wave, Punk and Britpop and come out on top with some amazing tunes including the singles 'Traffic Jam' and 'You And Me'. 11 tracks total. Columbia.
