Mono In Stereo Can't Stop The Bleeding

Rockford Illinois' second favorite sons return with their sophomore chapter 'Can't Stop The Bleeding'. Mono In Stereo are not just a band but a family of blood brothers that bring out the true sound of the heartland: melding the seemingly disparate influences of Bruce Springsteen, '80s hardcore, alt country, and classic mid-western punk. We're talking sincere songwriting, no-nonsense rocking tunes, and choruses that practically explode out of your earbuds. While in many ways similar to more recent bands like the Menzingers, Off With Their Heads and The Hold Steady, Mono In Stereo owes just as much to the mid-western legacy of Husker Du, The Replacements, Naked Raygun and Pegboy. Equal parts anthems, ballads, and straight-ahead rockers, pulling from a lifetime of musical influences that come together in a fully identifiable way. Demonstrating that loud guitars and big hooks still have a place in "mature" rock n' roll, Mono In Stereo piled into the basement_ literally. With a case of cold ones, notebook pages sprawled out with lyrics and images of times long past, hooks, choruses, guitars, bass and drums, and cranked out the next chapter in their heart-felt, heartland punk legacy. Including the gut-wrenching fist raising, sing-a-long choruses of "Different Kind Of Man", mid-western angst and youthful aggression in "Fores", and the lead guitar breakdown that'll be stuck in your head with the first single "The Conversation", Mono In Stereo have delivered a 5 Pack EP filled top to bottom with anthems for a new today.
