I saw these guys at the VAMPS Nightmare of Halloween live and they are awesome!! Can't stop listening to them now so I had to pick up this CD also.

Casbah ... You ... Sun shadow ... Safira ... This album is just Happiness ! You must hurry up !!! you have to find out how much MONORAL is amazing ! Radiohead ? Pearl Jam ? NO : that's only MONORAL and I'm already completly addict !!!

I just got Monoral´s Via and I can say I´m impressed!! They demonstrate their fantastic evolution into a sound that seems to me more "theirs" as ever with a combination of slow, unique, enchanting melodies and hard, rocking songs. Definitely worth listening and buying!

Another wonderful, genre-defying, auditory delight from MONORAL! MONORAL always delivers something surprising and innovative with each new release. Via is definitely my favorite album of theirs. There is a little bit of everything in here. Whether you want songs that are kind of mellow and that you can have on in the background while you study or get other things done, or if you want something more rockin', you've got them in this album. It changes every time I listen to it, but right now my favorite tracks are Casbah and Safira, which have a Moroccan/Arabian sound to them. Via and You are great to sing along with. (Really, it's almost impossible not to sing along. Even if you're in the car singin' like a fool, it's great!) Everybody should check 'em out. Give 'em a listen. You'll be hooked!
