It's Only Us is a deep dive into the psychedelic soul sound that The Monophonics have spent years perfecting. From the opening title track, the production—led by Kelly Finnigan—is lush, fuzzy, and cinematic.
"It’s a standout release for Colemine Records and a must-listen for anyone into the 'Sagan soul' movement."
