History

Mono Inc. was formed in 2000 by Miky Mono (lead vocals, bass), Carl Fornia (guitar) and Martin Engler (drums). Bass player Manuel Antoni joined in 2003, coinciding with the release of their self-published debut album Head Under Water. In 2004, the band signed with NoCut Entertainment and re-released the album with new artwork, spawning two singles: "Burn Me" and "Superman". During the production of their second album Temple Of The Torn in 2006, Miky Mono was replaced with Engler on vocals and Katha Mia on drums. The album was released in 2007. The band's third album, Pain, Love & Poetry, was released in 2008. The album contains three new versions of songs from Head Under Water and a duet with Lisa Middelhauve of Xandria in the single "Teach Me to Love". In 2009, Mono Inc. released their fourth album, Voices Of Doom.

The band toured in 2009 with Subway to Sally and ASP, playing at more than forty concerts in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland, and began headlining in 2010 during their "Voices Of Doom Tour". Former singer Miky Mono died in October 2010 in a paragliding accident. On 18th March 2011, Mono Inc. released their fifth album, Viva Hades. This was followed by another headlining tour, the "Viva Hades Tour", which included appearances in Austria and Switzerland for the second time, and guest appearances at the M'era Luna Festival and other festivals.
