Biografia : The Monolith Deathcult

The Monolith Deathcult is a brand new death metal band from the east of the Netherlands, and their purpose is to teach all the morbidness and destructive power in the art of Death Metal to the musically stuffed to the gills Dutch audience. No blasé band names from medical handbooks, no bloody, illegible band logos or other numerous clichés of the shamelessly dry-bled genre, but an emotionless and hyper-modern character. The coagulant of The Monolith Deathcult is the IJssel river that like a black trail of poison streams through the cities of Zutphen, Zwolle and Kampen, the residences of The Monolith Deathcult's members. All members of The Monolith Deathcult have extensive experience in the metal scene; with bands like Altar, Deadhead, Exposing Innards, Slayne and Eternal Conspiracy. This musical baggage is The Monolith Deathcult's guarantee for a post mortal eruption of sound of which the spasms will be felt for a long time to come in the musical polder model of the Netherlands. The Monolith Deathcult plays relentlessly complicated yet catchy death metal. Hyper speed drums complemented with screaming and growling guitars and a triple vocal attack are the mainstay for an hysterical death metal attack that will be unprecendented, especially in the Netherlands. In a very short timespan The Monolith Deathcult have worked their way into the highest ranks of the European death metal scene. In November 2002 The Monolith Deathcult unleashed the 4-track promo “Obliteration of the Despised” upon the unsuspection deathmetal audience. Both national and international reactions were overwhelming, which resulted in a recorddeal with the dutch-based label Cold Blood Industries. Fewer than two months after the release of the promo The Monolith Deathcult struck again with devastating force with the full-length album entitled “The Apotheosis”. For optimal marketing of this album the Deathcult were sent on a European tour with Skinless and The Crown. The Monolith Deathcult will teach you a new culture of death!
