David Knottnerus Why do I love this album? Ben is a phenomenal guitar player and Jeff is an amazing drummer, together they create a sound that is so primal, urgent,and slick, that I can't believe I have not been listening to it my whole life.

darrelp Was introduced to these guys via their in-studio appearance on KEXP (which is as amazing as this album is). If you like your hair metal/KISS/stoner rock all mixed together with a huge helping of reverb in the side, this is for you. It rocks.

Dumb mmmn there's always time for gems like this just like there's always room for Jello;
late night speed demon highway music that stirs spandex-clad loins

about

Monolith is a concept album, and Hobo's first LP in 4 years. It is a direct follow up to 2013's sci-fi concept LP, "Hobosexual II".

Monolith directly concerns outrage culture and the effect social media and technology have had on the human condition; from unfiltered constant bouts of sociopathic rage as acceptable public exchange, to blatant narcissistic affluence and fashion obsession (touted as admirable (or even artistic)), and the wreckage and decline of collective intellect these attitudes leave in their wake.

The "concept" therein is explored via retrospect of a person losing their own mind, in the midst of (and as a direct result of) said aforementioned "culture".


The work as a whole was composed and keyed to be presented in final form as a continuum. Please note that physical mediums, such as CD and Vinyl Copies will reflect this singular "cross-faded" vision throughout.

...this is also the most carefully produced, meticulously assembled, "Hair Metal" thing we've ever done.

We hope you have as much fun listening to it, as we did putting it together this last 3 years.
