Liverpool’s ace post-rock band The Mono LPs have developed a name for themselves with their clever creation of riff driven rock ‘n’ roll with a twist of cello. Band members Ste Reid (Vocals/Songwriter/Guitar), Vicky Mutch (Cello/Backing Vocals), Chris Barlow (Bass) and Daniel Beech (Drums) have been building a catalogue of gigs including supports with The Maccabees and British Sea Power. The four piece have released their new track ‘L.O.V.E & H.A.T.E’ which is the lead single taken from their new album, ‘State of Decay’. It’s a punchy song that makes a poignant statement about how love and hate can be as small as two people in a relationship or as big as two countries at war.
‘L.O.V.E & H.A.T.E’ is a swagger infused strut of attitude and sass. With a punchy jab on drums and smooth rubbery slapping bass that adds a springy buoyant feel to the track. The soulful vocals exude panache and a flamboyant sleek style that can lure and tempt with great charm and charisma. Fiery steamy guitars adds grit and a rough rugged quality to this otherwise sleek and sensual chic track. The warm depth of the cello adds a unique luxuriant rich quality to this blazing red hot gem.
A must listen!

The single launch for ‘L.O.V.E. & H.A.T.E‘  is at The Buyers Club, Liverpool on 3rd November and the album launch for ‘States Of Decay’ is on 10th November.
