VIMTV Episode #32: From Monument To Masses – On Little Known Frequencies

Jake: Recommended, 79/100

Tom: Recommended, 82/100

Overview: From Monument To Masses has done something amazing: make a virtually vocal-less album give a politically charged message. Not to mention the fact that their instrumentals are INCREDIBLE. This very unique approach of giving songs meaning through samples of speeches and interviews, combined with how they work with the musical moods, is something that makes this album worth listening to for anybody. But especially if you love complex instrumentals and rhythms, you absolutely can’t pass this album up.
