Under an Hour


Under an Hour is the second studio album from Portland-based experimental pop/rock group Menomena. The album was originally composed and performed as accompaniment for a performance by Portland dance company Monster Squad. Consisting of three instrumental tracks, the album is considered to be an experimental soundtrack along the lines of Peter Gabriel's Passion: Music for [The Last Temptation of Christ|Passion] or Badly Drawn Boy's soundtrack for About a Boy.
The album packaging contains an ironic Parental Advisory sticker for "explicit content." However, the sticker is meant as a joke; the album contains no words.
