$THE MON [IT] KARITI [IT] (PSYCH\/DARK FOLK)$

One of the first announcements for 2026 is the weird and wonderful THE MON and KARITI!!! Setting the stage for a fantastic year of announcements and events! Press on dear reader/listening/traveller for more details!
THE MON is the solo project of Urlo, vocalist and bassist of the long-running Italian heavy-psychedelic trio Ufomammut, co-founder of the internationally renowned poster art collective Malleus Rock Art Lab, and of the independent label Supernatural Cat.
Where Ufomammut projects massive, otherworldly soundscapes, THE MON offers a more vulnerable and introspective experience. The music moves through shadowy electronic landscapes, ambient textures, and hypnotic dark folk, always guided by an emotional core that searches for meaning, balance, and transformation.
The name THE MON evokes several layers of meaning: a contraction of “demon,” “monk,” and the Japanese word 門 (mon, meaning “gate”), a symbolic passage toward altered states of consciousness and inner truth. This duality of light and dark, sacred and profane, runs through the entire project.
Joining forces on this tour are co-conspirators KARITI (карити)-‘to mourn the dead ‘in church Slavonic-is an emotional & creative outlet of ekaterina-a Russian-born poet and song writer based in Italy.Her debut ‘Covered Mirrors’ was released in 2020(Aural music) and represents a ‘cathartic peregrination through bereavement’.
