Monkey3 - The 5th Sun (2013)

 

The fourth album from this band from Switzerland.

The band was a quartet with a lineup of drums, bass, guitars and keyboards.

The band soldiered on with their new album after a two years long break. I hope they spent the time touring. Their music deserves to be played live and loud.  

The 5th Sound is a fifty-five minutes long album.

The music is heavy and instrumental. The band has this time incorporated some post-rock into their blend of of heavy prog and psych rock.   

The incorporation of post-rock is successful and gives this album an edge.

The music is still very heavy and hard. But now, with an edge and some more interesting melodic themes.

There are some good themes and melodies here. Enough to make this a really good album and one to check out. This is their best album so far.
