just checked out aMute's myspace, they're pretty cool man. hit my country reminds me of thom yorke's solo stuff and bee and flower. and yeah, I agree about mono - but since were GYBE shit??

sunn might be one degree too far to really be the first thing to pop in yr head when mentioning GYBE, having other bands like kinski, EITS, polmo polpo, or even 65 days of static be much closer to what they do.
but if he wants ambient, it's good to direct attention to those who know and live ambient (or drone), instead of naively messing with it as a segue to grander things, as GYBE do.
but i'm not saying they're shit at all. i was just wondering why so many mono fans talk about yanqui UXO as being tired when they're listening to an entire band who's been consistently 5 years late to everything since "one step more and you die"
speaking of polmo polpo, check out his album"like hearts swelling", rongi. it's my 5th favorite record of all time and fits exactly what you're looking for.
everything about it is golden to me.
