THE MON - Videosingle zu "Major Arcana"
THE MON, the solo project of Ufomammut’s Urlo, releases brand new, mind-expanding video single "Major Arcana"!
Following the release of his sophomore studio album, Eye (released in 2023 via Supernatural Cat Records HERE and on Bandcamp HERE!), THE MON – the solo project of Ufomammut’s Urlo, presents his new song entitled "Major Arcana". The stand-alone single is out now on all digital streaming services, and is accompanied by an incredible visualizer video clip, that is premiering below!
"Over the past years, Malleus, the artistic collective I am part of, has created a series of silkscreen prints dedicated to the Tarot’s Major Arcana, a long and intense journey of reimagining these mystical figures," Urlo comments.
"Inspired by this series (https://www.malleusdelic.com/home/tarots/), I composed Major Arcana, a track that unfolds like a ritual—layering voices and synths into a meditative rise before erupting into waves of guitar-driven intensity. Rooted in ambient and drone textures, it seeks to channel the esoteric power of the Tarot, their deep connection to our existence, and the four elements that shape our world.
This track marks the completion of the Malleusdelic Major Arcana cycle while opening the door to a year of new projects with The Mon. The videoclip takes you on a journey through the world crafted by Malleus, bringing their vision to life."

THE MON is the solo project by Urlo, best known as the lead vocalist, bassist, and synth player in the heavy psych italian band Ufomammut and one of the three minds behind the poster art trio Malleus Rock Art Lab. Where Ufomammut creates mind-expanding, heavy psychedelic, almost other-dimensional sounds, THE MON by comparison is far more intimate, looking inward, as Urlo explores and examines his inner most thoughts through music.
THE MON builds layers of brooding sounds which sometimes unfurl at a glacial pace and other times lurch with rhythmic propulsion, each piece distinct, densely packed, and all-consuming in their evocative atmospheres. The aim is to reach the boundaries of a spiritual soundscape in which the music becomes purification and atonement, a way to bring out the world that is inside human soul. THE MON's sound is a journey through the mind and a personal discovery of the relation between evil and good.
That starts from the name THE MON (to be kept together) – like ‘Demon,’ but also like ‘the Monk” or, in Japanese language ” gate” (often used in referring to the many gates used by Buddhist temples, Shinto shrines and traditional-style buildings and castles) — to reach landscapes of sound that enable the listener to enter into different levels of consciousness in a cathartic way.
