Monta是德国籍英国人Tobias Kuhn一个人撑起的乐团，Kuhn是另一个德国乐队Miles的主唱兼吉他手。Miles组建于1992年，当时Kuhn正在德国的Wuerzbery大学念书，然后遇到了喜好独立音乐的Mike Silver和Ronny Rock，之后一切就顺理成章了。乐队组建不久并自制发行了一张同名EP。1997年签约德国一家唱片公司并发行首张专辑”The Day I Vanished”，1999年出产第二张专辑，名字不详。两张专辑后乐队影响力逐渐扩大，由欧洲、日本波及到了美国。2001年美国的独立音乐厂牌Feel Records签下了该乐队并于次年夏天发行了一张精选集”Structure Vs. Happiness”。

撇开Miles乐队不说，Monta应该算是Kuhn的一个Solo Project。2003年Monta发行第一张EP-”Always Altamont”(文末附有下载地址)，干净优美略带一点Sadcore的独立流行风格从此确立。之后Monta总是作为配角给Death Cab for Cutie、Bright Eyes、Elbow、Naked Lunch等乐队做助阵演出。2005年，Monta终于带来了一张一鸣惊人的Where Circles Begin，这是一张完全可以进入史上最动听独立流行前十名的作品（仅代表个人意见）。两年后的The Brilliant Masses依旧保持原风格，贡献了诸如Good morning stranger之类的名曲，但并没有大的突破（事实上可以听出来Good morning stranger这首歌副歌部分被i’m sorry附了体）。

主唱的Kuhn的声线跟Death Cab For Cutie相似度达到了90%，都是比较适合演绎小indie作品的嗓子，干净，温和，有一点内敛，带一些青涩，很家常，因此让人听着舒服。

歌词：
To pick up a car
And drive away
Through night and day
Wind and rain
Decide which road to take
There’s no more feeling safe

Is it over?
You can have it if you want
Is it over?
You can have it if you want
Is it over?
You can have it if you want
Is it over?
You can have it if you want

So let’s take another way

To burn down your house
And leave no trace
The wind will find you
At any place
Decide which road to take
There’s no more feeling safe

Is it over?
You can have it if you want
Is it over?
You can have it if you want
Is it over?
You can have it if you want
Is it over?
You can have it if you want

All i need is morning with sunshine
All i need is a race without a clock
All i need is a morning with sunshine
You can give it all

Is it over?
You can have it if you want
Is it over?
You can have it if you want
Is it over?
You can have it if you want
Is it over?
You can have it if you want
