Biography of Monsters Are Waiting


"That's right, they told me I had to tell the truth, and well, I said I would do it to the best of my ability." "Well weren't you just a little bit scared, I mean the truth can be so, well truthful?" "True, the truth can be pretty well, like you said, truthful, but if you don't tell the truth then you're a liar, and we can't have that can we?" "No we surely can't have that."

"So what did you say, I mean what truth did you tell?" "Well I told them that I went to go see Monsters Are Waiting play a show." "You didn't!" "Well I had to it was the truth, wasn't it?" "Yeah, I suppose so, what else did you say?" "I told them that it was really a great show and that I had the best time ever." "Did they get mad?" "Oh hell no, they just wanted to hear all about it." "What did you say?" "Well you know it's so hard to describe the sound of music with words so I just described how it made me feel. I could have told them that it was a band with guitars and drums and other instruments but that wouldn't have helped. I could have said that there was a girl singer and that she was amazing but that doesn't describe what she sounds like. Does it matter that they come from Los Angeles, maybe, but that doesn't tell you what they sound like. I could have said things like the music is expressive without being idiosyncratic, it rocks but not in a boogie way, it's sophisticated but not in a stodgy, stultified way. It's sexy but not slutty, they play hard but don't bludgeon, that Monsters Are Waiting are smart but they aren't poindexters. I could have said all that but to what end, really?" "Wow you are so right, so what did you say?"

"Behind every corner, behind every smile or clap on the back, Monsters Are Waiting. In the fury of the star filled night or in the calm of the dewey morning, Monsters Are Waiting. Blinded by the glare of the noonday sun or lost in the fires of the dusk, Monsters Are Waiting."

The Band's Blog

so good it's scary

I read somewhere that this band is "so good it's scary" and I completely agree. The vocalist has a wonderfully breathy voice, and the instrumentals are out of this world.
