NEWS: Monuments leave us seeing red!

Produced, Recorded and Edited by guitarist John Browne, vocalist Andy Cizek and drummer Mike Malyan with Mick Gordon receiving co-production credits, Monuments are set to return on 15th April with a new album titled “In Stasis” mastered by Jens Bogren (Sepultura, At The Gates) at Fascination Street Studios. A second single has been released from the 10 track affair in “Cardinal Red” although curiously 2021 single “Deadnest” remains absent from the track listing…

Says the band about the song and video: “The story outlined in this video, is without question, a metaphorical concept. The true meaning of ‘Cardinal Red’ can be found cryptically within the lyrics.”

The band about “In Stasis”: “We approached this album without the intention of a specific concept. However – three songs in, what was being written ended up sharing a common theme. This feeling of being stuck in the middle, a feeling we experience throughout our lives – within friendships and relationships, love to hate, life to death, belief or non-belief, being in power to total defeat, isolation to freedom. Over the past 2 years, we have been faced with many of these trials, and these struggles can be heard throughout the record. This record is a culmination of our greatest triumphs and our deepest struggles. We hope it resonates with you, and brings you closer to equilibrium. We’d like to thank guests Neema Askari (Form Subtract, ex Fellsilent, ex-Monuments), Spencer Sotelo (Periphery, King Mothership), and Mick Gordon (DOOM, Prey, Killer Instinct) for enhancing the record with their unique perspectives.”
