About Monks

Frank discusses the relationship he had with a female groupie he had met on a tour. He continuously compares the audience at his tours to Buddhist monks and their spiritual idol (Dalai Lama). Malay, producer of the song, answered this on a Reddit AMA: "Intro to monks was done all with arturia stuff and a moog voyager" “Monks” is, among other things, about Frank’s relationship with a series of women attending his concerts. He positions each concert as a religious experience. .
