I downloaded an album by mistake. Thinking that the shoegazin’, post-rockin’ maestros Mono had released something new without my knowledge I queued up the file without so much as looking at the title…

…I’m not sure I can find anything positive to say about mono’s supposed ‘Ghibli tribute’ album (titled ジブリを聴きながら、上を向いて歩こう). It’s amazing how this female-fronted vocal unit managed to suck the energy and life out of Mononoke Hime, Kimi o Nosete and even the damned Ponyo song.

Listen to the Donut Man for your fill of fun instead.
