Influences
take their name from Jack Kerouac's The Subterraneans; a tragic-love-novel of epic obsessive proportions where lead character Mardou and Jack fall in love and then out of love so bright that it quickly extinguished leaving Jack alone with heartsick and obsession. He then sat down and wrote an amphetamine psalm for the lost love affair. It was pure exorcism.
And when you hear the Mardous urgent melodies it will make sense. As Jacks novel was a drugged-up peon of obsessive love written in a lost weekend, the Mardous haunt similar themes, capturing the loneliness of Joe Buck in Midnight Cowboy wandering the streets of NYC, the desperation of Al Pacino in Dog Day Afternoon and the urgent fading of a Tennessee Williams character. All searching for the impossible, the striving for the intangible.

We are very proud to announce, that Monocular s "Water Shape EP" is available at your favorite Online-Store now.
Containing the single "Water Shape" from the forthcoming album "Somewhere On The Line" (April 03, 2009 VierSieben Records/Alive) and three non-album tracks ("Consequence", "To Admire The Life", "Ravenclaw"), it is definitely a must have for all fans of filigree and athmospheric electrosounds.
Where bands like Lamb or Frou Frou left a gap in the late 90s and early 21st century, Monocular redefined the sound and set new standards in developing their complex music by connecting charismatic vocals with entrancing soundscapes.
Produced by John Kettle (The Marble Index, Aiden Smith), and mastered by Mike Cave (Elvis Costello, The Charlatans), this gutsy indie ballad combines atmospheric piano, thumping drums and epic, sweeping vocals to create an uplifting pop anthem.
Alibi was released on itunes today, you can buy it for 79p! CLICK HERE TO BUY!
