Stupid Dream

This Is No Rehearsal

Apart

With their second single "Whatkeepsmewakingup”, the Swiss indie band Mono Mochi presents a clear antithesis to their previous road trip release “Wild Thyme”.

The anthem from their upcoming debut album “Oh Elsa!” (release on May 31, 2024) shows a humorous side and deals with life's stumbling blocks and absurd moments.
At first the new single leaves open the possibility of a calm, breathy ballad, but it quickly develops into an unstoppable groove reminiscent of King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard.

“Whatkeepsmewakingup” is about aimless running, where you are no longer exactly sure why you are running and what you are actually escaping from.

The rocky, distorted character of the song forms a strong contrast to the other pieces on the record. The repetitive, almost crazy lines that juggle between dream and reality give the song a playful lightness that just doesn't want to calm down.

And when you finally stand at the gate of the long-awaited sleep, the huge hamster wheel rolls over you and drags you back into a surreal world of wants, needs and pure rush.

“Whatkeepsmewakingup” - a nightmare!

FOR A NEW SINGLE!!!

"If I Could Ever Be"

Lyrics:
Night of the dead
Feeling so alone
Inside my heart
Nothing there is

One day you'll see
That I will be gone
If you ever see
Then please don't leave

Clean, unclean, only animals are free
Seen, unseen, if I could ever be

Fly fly away
I'll be ok
Tell 'em I'm alright
All the paths are bright

One day you'll see
That I will be gone
If you ever see
Then please don't leave

Clean, unclean, only animals are free
Seen, unseen, if I could ever be


Happy happy happy times
will never come back, is it ok?
Better better better times
will I ever ever see, do you agree?
Deeper deeper deeper mind
is it allways good, can't you see?
Empty empty empty soul
do we even care, are we for real?

Oh, hello. Here I am
Hey, what's up, how you doing?
It's been along while
Since we last felt eachother
I didn't know you're like
Myself, do we like?


Oh why, did you just...
I'm so sorry, I am so confused
I think I felt something happening
Oh I think I've just lost my mind

Oh why, did you just...
I'm so sorry, I am so confused
I think I felt something happening
Oh I think I've just lost my mind
