Teeming with melodic epiphanies and layered sounds, Squid's second album O Monolith is a musical evocation of environment, domesticity and self-made folklore. Like it's predecessor, 2021's critically acclaimed, UK number 4 album Bright Green Field, it is dense and tricksy - but also more warm and characterful, with a meandering, questioning nature. A sense of open conversation is cultivated: this is unmistakably music made by friends, but it's not exclusionary - they're inviting you in to listen with them. Expansive, evocative and hugely varied, O Monolith retains Squid's restless, enigmatic spirit, but it still holds surprises for those familiar with Bright Green Field. It's a reflection of the outsized progression of a band always looking to the future. Like it's namesake, O Monolith is vast and strange; alive with endless possible interpretations of it's inner mysteries.1. Swing (In A Dream) 2. Devil's Den 3. Siphon Song 4. Undergrowth 5. The Blades 6. After The Flash 7. Green Light 8. If You Had Seen The Bull's Swimming Attempts You Would Have Stayed Away
