The long-awaited fourth Monnone Alone album Here Comes the Afternoon is almost with us and available to pre-order now!
Deviating from the straight-ahead powerpop of 2019’s Summer of the Mosquito and the locked-down bedroom pop of Stay Foggy (2021), the new album delves into some gentle psychedelia and sunshine pop whilst touching ever so fondly upon The Apples in Stereo, The Who, The Cure, The Bats and yes, Happy Mondays!
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.
The Monnone Alone core line-up of Mark Monnone, Gus Franklin, Joe Foley and Louis Richter are joined on this joyously ramshacklin’ affair by erstwhile Aloners of yesteryear like Darren Hanlon, Steph Hughes and Lehmann B. Smith as well as members of The Icypoles, The Ladybug Transistor, Kisschasy, Fred Astereo and Personal & the Pizzas.
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.
