From Monument To Masses - The Impossible Leap In One Hundred Simple Steps

This is my first post in a very long time so I will try and make it a really ace one to make up for lost time. I'm so sorry everybody. I got distracted, but it's good to be back.

I think maybe I am one of the last people to catch on to From Monument To Masses because for three years I had no idea what they were called or who they were, but loved their music. My ex-boyfriend would make me minidiscs and normally forgot to label them, and he must have made me a FMTM one at some point. It became one of my most listened to discs and because we broke up I never found out who they were, until a few months ago I was made a mix-CD and recognised a song and thus discovered the identity of my mystery band.

If I had a band, I'd want them to sound like this. Unfortunately I don't (probably for the best). I suppose it falls into the "post-rock" category most of the time... and then other times it's almost DJ Shadow, but then it can also occasionally touch on Fugazi. I don't know how you can define this band exactly. I just know that it's incredible. This band is easily one of my all-time favourites. Absolutely stunning. Listen to it on headphones at night-time, preferably when walking.

You can buy From Monument To Masses records and merch here. They also have a MySpace account!
