Sydney based alternative rock band Monte have released a new single "Stay", a powerful insight into their 2013 debut album release. Recorded out in the wilderness at Grove Studios (Silverchair, Eskimo Joe) and produced by Sam Sproull (Gatherer), "Stay" demonstrates Monte's darker writing and newfound tendency to deliver a massive wall of sound, a shift away from their former pop-driven sound.

Monte are the result of four friends with a background in metal and hardcore who moved to Australia from New Zealand with an aim to distil these influences into a more mature brand of rock music.

"Stay" is available for purchase on iTunes and to stream on Soundcloud, Spotify and Rdio.
