Hear the new single ‘Son of the Rambling Dawn’ from Mondaze – New album ‘Linger’ out in November

Shoegaze band Mondaze will release their second album ‘Linger‘ on 22 November via Bronson Recordings.

Today, they share their new single ‘Son of the Rambling Dawn‘, which adopts a visceral and physical perspective. It delves into “the fleeting nature of life and the unavoidable fate that accompanies it, where uncertainty reigns and everything is destined to change.”

The sound is a contemporary and dynamic take on shoegaze, with guitars returning as a central element that creates an immersive experience and intricate layers, smoothly blending different influences to convey a modern sensibility.

The band recently released the album title track ‘Linger‘, a song that explores memory and nostalgia—two deeply significant emotions in this era.

Since forming in 2018, Italy-based Mondaze have defined themselves as “heavy shoegaze”, taking inspiration from bands like genre-giants Swervedriver and Ride, but also contemporary bands pushing through the limits of the genre like Nothing and Ringo Deathstarr. With Linger, they aim to amplify the melancholy tones of their frustration and rage. These sonic characteristics drove them to work with Chris Fullard (Idles and Boris) on mixing, and Maurizio Baggio (The Soft Moon, Boy Harsher) for mastering. The result is an album with roots, yet distinctly modern featuring arrangements that skillfully blend contemporary styles with dreamy and eerie atmospheres.
