O Monolith

Teeming with melodic epiphanies and layered sounds, Squid’s
second album O Monolith is a musical evocation of environment,
domesticity and self-made folklore. Like its predecessor, 2021’s
critically acclaimed, UK number 4 album Bright Green Field, it is
dense and tricksy – but also more warm and characterful, with a
meandering, questioning nature.

Expansive, evocative and hugely varied, O Monolith retains Squid’s
restless, enigmatic spirit, but it still holds surprises for those familiar
with Bright Green Field. It’s a reflection of the outsized progression
of a band always looking to the future. Like its namesake, O
Monolith is vast and strange; alive with endless possible
interpretations of its inner mysteries.
