I've got nothing against MONO or Taka, but MONO has seen diminishing returns in albums since "Hymn..." because of the same progression in every song. Unfortunately, this sounds like more of the same. I'm hoping the rest of the album is experimental and plays with vocals, mood, and tempo together in a way that isn't a slow rise to the climax, or this album is going to end up like the last three MONO albums: pleasant background music.
