“For fans of psychedelic rock, experimental music and immersive albums, Heavy Metal is a must-listen. It’s bold, unfiltered and effortlessly cool—an album that demands to be experienced from start to finish.” – AAA Backstage
Monotonic was formed during the pandemic by veterans of Perth’s golden alt-rock era: Liam Coffey (Header, The Slow Beings), Allan Balmont (Ammonia), and Jack Lucas (Yummy Fur/Six Mile High). Reuniting decades after their respective bands made waves in the ’90s, the three longtime friends found a fresh creative spark in loose jam sessions that continued to evolve into something greater than intended. Jams turned into songs, and while there were no initial plans to record, they became so committed to the music they were creating that an album eventually became an inevitability.
