1. Drag Your White Fur
2. Make It Grey
3.Thornberry
4. Finger Painted Notes
5. The Sound That Love Makes
6. Candles
7. Teratoma
8. Between The Rocks And The Clouds

10. Lessons


Lifestory: Monologue have released their fifth album titled "Drag Your White Fur, Make It Grey" This album follows along with the bands signature style of spoken word along with ambient music around the lyrics. The album doesn't stray off from what you are used to from the band and nothing has been really added to the sound of anything, just Lifestory as you know them. Again the album has been recorded and played beautifully, especially with the different sounds they like to use, such as the violin bow across the guitar strings. This band is a really unique band as people are not doing what they are doing inside the kinds of bands they find themselves associated with. Doing all of this and making their songs really long makes this bandvery attention getting. The song to listen to on this album would be "Candles" as this song exemplifys what the band is all about the most and it has great lyrics. All in all, this band is something you need to listen to at least once as this is something you've never heard before. They have since called it quits (R.I.P.)

Lifestory: Monologue - The Thornberry EP



1. Thornberry
2. The Coward
3. The Sound That Love Makes


Lifestory: Monologue have released "The Thornberry EP." This EP is just a sample for what the new upcoming album will sound like. It has the same unmistakable unique sound that Lifestory do on all their albums and do it decently. With the title song "Thornberry" it is weird to see a song thats under four minutes for this band but that doesn't take anything away from it. Overall, these three songs are a great lead up to what the new album will sound like. They have since called it quits (R.I.P.)

Lifestory: Monologue - Hold Me In The Wind, My Friend



1. Dancing And Kisses
2. Ultimate!
3. Wolves Behind Me
4. Sway The Stalks
5. Rejoice, Rejoice


Lifestory: Monologue have made an amazing album when you listen to this one. This album is full of very different experimental music that is hard to find anyone who sounds like them. The songs in the album are capped off with the 8 minute epic "Dancing And Kisses" which is probably the best written song to date by these guys. Every song is worth listening to on this album, so give it your ears. They have since called it quits (R.I.P.)

Lifestory: Monologue - Ballad Of The Maida Vale



1. Red Sky At Morning, Sailors Take Warning
2. Of Dreamers And Dead Men
3. Hallelujah! Our God Will Be A Snare To Us
4. Save Our Sinking Souls!
5. Greed Is The Advent
6. A Raven's Conviction
7. Rejoice! Rejoice!


The second EP from the indie rock favourites is a good one, and it shows their continuation with the unique style that they play. The soften spoke words of the vocalist make this band unique. Look out for the 10 min song Hallelujah!, they seem to like making their songs longer like that. These guys were a favourite in the scene, and they need to be heard and experienced just once, to hear something so different. They have since called it quits (R.I.P.)
