Post-Metal Quartet El Moono Released Video For New Single “The Waking Sun”

Post-metal Brightonian quartet El Moono have released a video for their new single ‘The Waking Sun’. The single, which features guest vocals from Leah Stanhope of Congratulations, is the title track from their forthcoming debut album, due for release on 10th May via Lockjaw Records. 

The band comment: “‘The Waking Sun’ is the title track from the album – and it’s an ironic title. The song is a day-to-day analysis of depression, which lingers throughout every ‘waking’ moment of the day. This has been a general theme in our writing since our last record, Temple Corrupted, and we felt that the title track summarises the album as a whole. It was a pleasure to invite Leah Stanhope from Congratulations to feature on this track – her vocals add so much emotion to the song – it’s possibly the only song we’ve written in a major key. “

The Waking Sun was recorded at Middle Farm Studios with Sam Conevey, and have meticulously carved a fully immersive experience for listeners to explore. El Moono will be unveiling the album at a special session at Dolby Screening Room, London, 8th May, where the album’s 360-degree spatial Dolby Atmos mix will deliver depth, clarity, and sonic details unheard of elsewhere. The band will also be giving a Q&A – and tickets will be offered to the first 50 album pre-orders. An additional session will be held on 17th May in Brighton.
