With this album Monstereo demonstrates their richest and broadest sound yet, with more keyboards, synths, and a variety of guitars, offering, according to the band, teeth-grinding riffs, big choruses and rock-solid grooves. The tracks on In the Hollow Of A Wave represents the best of two worlds. Catchy melodies, heavy riffs and a big sound, combined with exploratory instrumental sections that build towards a euphoric climax.

 Rooted in 70’s Rock and Psychedelia, the band’s 2013 debut full-length Spacesuits, On brought Monstereo’s Space Rock, with its jam-sections and exploratory feel to a wider audience. The 2014 follow up Bright Dark saw the band forming its musical identity, with distinctive guitar riffs and vocal melodies being given more prominence.
