The tracks are exceedingly powerful, and all of them have very special signatures. With uplifting and sensational vibrating rhythms, each song is a monumental creation per se, with a major set of singular characteristics that explodes in an invisible pattern of emotions, never testified on the creative history of the underground scene. With a musical atmosphere that resurrects the biosphere of a gracious narrative, encircled by a geological form of creative artistry, Holy Monitor embraces a lucid and very effective storm of originality, that gives them a unique shape, unbound by a tremendously expansive musical identity. Their sound is so alive that you literally feel all the musical notes invading your soul with a spontaneous vehemence, lacerating your heart with an oblique insistence, that only a very different genre, executed with an exceptionally skilled musical approach, would be able to perform.
Holy Monitor, on their eponymous album, has really done a marvelous work. With a strong musical presence and a higher level of originality, extremely uncommon to testify in any genre, they certainly can be regarded as one of the most glorious references in the contemporary development of their genre, for having executed an unparalleled work for the category, that obviously highlights them as one of the most important krautrock groups in the world today (although precisely define their sound, and insert them in one specific category, is a very difficult task, since they incorporate into their music an enormous set of several elements, from a lot of other genres as well).
Holy Monitor is a splendid group, and their eponymous album is a marvelous record. Everybody that listen to this majestic masterpiece would be wonderfully impressed, and literally without words. Departing from a superior level of creative artistry, Holy Monitor gives us paradise, in a very outstanding, excellent and vivaciously elaborated sonorous dimension.
