Monoculture

Sainthood Reps' debut, Monoculture is a work influenced by early '90s post-hardcore and contemporary post-rock as well as other artistic avenues, with much of the lyrical content derived from a historical perspective gathered via films and books, rather than personal experience. Recorded in their native Long Island with producer Mike Sapone (Brand New, Crime in Stereo), the album achieves a balance between jagged, uneasy, sometimes harsh distortion and fuzz, and a found that feels equally ethereal, reflective and progressive.
