Monnone Alone - Here Comes the Afternoon

€10.00 - €18.00

Some excellent news from us to you today: the long-awaited fourth Monnone Alone album Here Comes the Afternoon is almost with us and available to pre-order now!

Lovingly and languorously crafted over the past six years, the new album was predominantly recorded by the band on 8-track cassette in both their rehearsal space and their shabby-chic backyard studio Stock Cube in the inner-northern Melbourne suburb of Coburg.

Longtime Monnone Alone producer Gareth Parton donned his mixer's cap once again with the band's drumming all-rounder Gus Franklin as ever sweeping all kinds of magic dust into the album's hidden crevices.
