monoloQue are a sonic success in more than one way.
They remain one of the most orchestrally rich bands in these parts and they are probably the only band to have successfully melded more contemporary indie sonic textures with traditional Malay folk elements.
Led by the enigmatic and talented Loque (of Butterfingers fame), their record this year “Jangan Puja Sampai Kecewa” continues their metamorphosis as a band. It’s a delicious melting pot of provocative sonic structures with strong dashes of traditional Malay melodies and rhythm.
