Since their inception in 1999, Japan's MONO have seen their world expand and unfold like one of their own songs; glacial and grandiose. Their ever-growing circle of friends (which they like to call their "family") has made the world their home. In late 2003 they were introduced to Steve Albini, who has gone on to engineer every recording they've released since, including their breakthrough album, 'You Are There' (2006). 'The Sky Remains The Same As Ever' is a nearly two-hour document of the recording sessions for You Are There, and the several worldwide tours that followed its release. The film displays the friendships that have made MONO's journeysenjoyable, and the fanatical dedication that has made it all possible.
