Name: Another Day by The Sighs of Monsters in Ambient, Droning, Hypnotism
Duration: 5 min 33 s
Description: From the album 'Ground' by The Sighs of Monsters.

Ambient, Droning, Hypnotism

The 'More Than Blue collab is a musical work featuring words from the poem, More Than Blue and music/vocals from the Band Sighs Of Monsters

The poem 'More Than Blue' references the New Order track Blue Monday... so for this collab, London-based band, Sighs Of Monsters, created a New Order inspired musical bed for the poem, with a unique vocal melody and performance.

The Sighs of Monsters is a band from London, though none have the same passport, so the absolute truth is more complicated than that. They are all travellers and migrants, or the children of travellers and migrants, and consequently, they share the sounds and rhythms of “all over the place”. But they have found themselves in London and in London they make their stand.

Montréal-based Marie Davidson is something special. Creating dark and ominously sexy synth-laden tracks, the artist weaves her poetry - sometimes English, sometimes French - into the smokey atmosphere as spoken word. Taken from her second LP, Un Autre Voyage (out April 14th on Holodeck Records), Insomnie builds in intensity, layering electronic ladders as you make it through the haze and through another sleepless night. Following Marie's dreamy performance at SXSW, we are honoured to present the premiere of Insomnie and accompany the beauty on her nighttime journey. Join us!

Chief Joseph / Trouble Song

Chief Joseph please understand
I had to leave my homeland
start a new line, leave my bones behind
Come to California, yeah my fortune to find
Come to California, leave my troubles behind
and what did I find?
wherever I go
find me trouble and woe

Chief Joseph I understand
Not all came of their own plan
sold into slavery took hundreds of years to be free
come to the land of Dixie, come in shackle and chain
come down the Mississippi yeah well, could not keep your own name
it will drive you insane
beyond belief
so much trouble and grief

New day rise
Keep hope alive
Hold on

Woe mama yeah!

come to the land of Liberty  yeah
brother and sister and me
come to the land of equality
come pilgrim, refugee
we all come to be free
its a long road to run
yeah there’s much to be won 
and race is not done
but I believe we shall overcome!

said a new day surely rise
keep your eye on the prize
hold on, hold on
ain’t no time, sing good trouble
ain’t no time, sing good trouble
ain’t no time, sing good trouble
trouble song.

Yeah!

Chief Joseph

The Sighs of Monsters is a band from the UK. 

The easy answer to "What sort of music do they play?" is ‘art rock’, but in truth they do what they think the song needs. 

"Three quarters of a century into rock ‘n’ roll, the musical vocabulary is so huge that restricting oneself to a particular style seems pointless and needless," says vocalist/guitarist Dean Sobers.

"The ‘The Sighs of Monsters’ sound comes from the way we play and the personality of Dean’s voice, but we don’t mind pulling in elements of folk, jazz, punk, ska, avant garde, or straight-down-the line rock. There comes a point in the life of a song where it is almost able to tell you what it needs, " adds percussionist Chris Houston.

The band started recording 'GROUND' with no fixed agenda, "but we knew from the start that we wanted to create an album that felt like one of those classic albums we grew up with," says bassist Brett Lock. "The ‘album’ as an artistic statement has lost a lot of ground over the last decade because iTunes culture has emphasised random individual tracks compiled into personal playlists. We wanted to create something for the type of music fan that enjoys sitting back and listening to an album as a cohesive work: someone with patience and who remembers why they loved music."
