Recorded at Middle Farm Studios with Sam Conevey, The Waking Sun showcases a darker and more mature side of El Moono. Following their well-received Temple Corrupted EP, the band has been making waves in the British underground scene, drawing praise from Metal Hammer, Kerrang!, and Guitar World.

With a blend of rock, hardcore, metal, and grunge influences, El Moono?s unique sound is characterized by off-kilter riffs, emotive melodies, and expressive lyrics. Their music defies easy categorization, offering a fresh take on the metal genre.
