A concept album told across nine tracks, “The Monolith” follows the story of a traveller from a dystopian future who leaves behind a dying planet in order to return to the past, hoping to prevent tragedy from repeating itself.
The album has been in planning for almost five years and and represents the bands most accomplished work to date. Blending symphonic grandeur with the aggression of melodic death metal, “The Monolith” delivers an immersive listening experience that balances intensity with atmosphere.
Adding to its impact are special guest appearances from Brian Kingsland and Karl Sanders of Nile, as well as Björn Strid of Soilwork, underscoring the band’s growing presence on the international scene.
