It's an unexpected return we had given up on. The Married Monk (MM for aficionados), a cult band from the 1990s and 2000s, is back ten years after their fifth album, Elephant People (2008). We had feared that the long wait for a successor meant it would be the final chapter in an exemplary discography. Formed by Christian Quermalet, a singer and melodist with a distinctively deep voice, The Married Monk left their mark on the French music scene with a handful of important albums. An admirable and unparalleled band, The Married Monk has thus released an absolutely unexpected and admirable sixth album, securing both a future for their recordings and live performances, twenty-five years after their debut. Who would have thought it? "The Married Monk once again succeed in integrating their audacity into a very accessible form." Pop News
