MONO - Scarlet Holliday

Short and sweet and beauteous.

Maybe that's all that needs to be said about this appr. twelve minute / two tracks Christmas gift from the Japanese instrumental post rock institution Mono.

"Scarlet Holliday" and "First Winter" are both meant to elevate you into a state of hope and melancholic joy. They both could have turned too kitschy in lesser hands, but since Mono are masters at their craft, this just brings pure unfiltered peace and happiness.

Dōmo arigatōgozaimashita!
