 When speaking at the launch of "Monoliths & Dimensions", Stephen O'Malley told Alex Templeton-Ward that the album was "like a prism... our music is the white light going in, a lot of the colour comes out the other side through the amazing arrangements and personalities of the guest performers and core collaborators… I think the main topic of this album is elaboration, expansion and prismatic detail.The source of that detail is inherent in the sounds of the guitars and the notes of those arrangements.
