Japan's masters of melancholy, MONO, have just shared the first taste of their new album Requiem For Hell. "Ely's Heartbeat" ranks amongst the instrumental quartet's most evocative songs, and on the album makes for a moment of beautiful respite after the crushing heaviness of the title track (see below).

"Mono possess an eerily intuitive understanding of the dynamic potential between soft and loud" - NOISEY
