I caught these guys on some random weeknight a couple years ago and it was a great show. Veterans like this go 110% even for a thin Tuesday night crowd, and my post-headbang neck pain the day after was very satisfying
@Philip Deppen are you in the band now? If the fans don't exist no band will be legendary. This is not Monstrosity anymore. 50 band members and sound changes ago was Monstrosity. This is about as legendary as your dumb ass reply
@@thomasedwardlawrence9775 why don't you get a life. All that matters is the band , sick of this internet bullshit. Stupid people are more apt to waste money on CDs , and , Gorguts is absolutely horrendous u like mi grammmer oh did me spell rawng too
This album is fucking massive. Proves to me, that you can put out something totally amazing, and nobody will notice. Too much shit clogging the airwaves these days..... 10/10
The thing with Monstrosity is that they deliver some solid kick-ass Deathmetal with catchy riffs and nice tight drumming and great solo's. It never gets old. They don't want to be the fastest band in the world,and thats fine. Love this album.
I've been listening to metal for 30 years. I can say without hesitation this is one of the best albums I have ever heard. Absolutely fucking killer. 10/10 all day.
Really excellent! Sounds great, very balanced through-out with catchy memorable songs. Awesome complete package honed to high finesse. Best album i've heard in a good while! There are those true and genuine, building on good foundations. Legends that stand tall the test of time. Monstrosity is one of those grand legends, amazing effort after 11 years! Posers, superficial copycats come and go, but true masters prevail!
I'm not into Death Metal, but this one is really cool. It has great equally melodic and brutal compositions and the emphasis on solos is really satisfying.
Holy **** , what a release..! Absolutely blew any and all of my expectations. Most definitely in my top 10 album releases this year! Welcome back, Monstrosity :-) Way to make up for an 11 year wait.
I just thought the same. It is so easy to learn song's names that way. And the best thing is, it's something simple that allows the listener to focus on all they share.

One of the most metal albums I’ve heard in years. Lots of potential this band could hack tone and production wise. Imagine this band being produced by say Seasons of Mist... see what I mean here.
Its already 2021 but this album always knew to me......i really like this album,i kept on listening to monstrosity everytime during working hour,even if it's prohibited....lol
Cuando esto salió por x o por y no le había prestado la atención respectiva... Y sencillamente me alegro de darle su tiempo... Este disco es aplastante e implacable... Eso es lo bueno del Death metal... Siempre hay joyas ocultas esperando para aserrarte el cerebro
best click by mistake of the year.. never heard of this kick ass death metal band before , defenetily in my top 5 death metal album, kinda remind me decapitated album NIHILITY
Que pedazo de disco!!! Disfrutarlo con los auriculares y intentar no perderse detalle. Aunque como un buen libro volver a leerlo por si te queda algún riff que te has perdido.
My top five of the year are THIS of course, Pestilence (Hadeon), Bloodshot Dawn (Reanimation), Resurrection (Resurrection), and hmm probably a toss up between Jungle Rot, and Revocation (The Outer Ones)
Wow, I have been a big fan of Monstrosity for well over a decade now, and I was sad they were not producing anything anymore. And here I am, late in 2021, discovering that they released this MASSIVE album 3 years ago! That’s a masterpiece, their best release yet. Along with The Chasm, I consider this band to be one of the finest death metal bands ever. And they both don’t get near enough recognition out there.
This album has some of the great songwriting chops of Malevolent Creation. The drummer does some very subtle things that add a new twist to the same rhythms that have been around for 30+ years.
Holy good god damn this is a killer fucking album \m/ Always loved monstrosity and they were actually the first death metal concert I ever went to as a teenager when they were touring for "In Dark Purity" which is one of my favorite albums of all time and one of the best shows of all time considering they were touring with Pyaemia! Pyaemia only made 1 album and disbanded so I'm super glad I got to see them live for the limited time they were around. Also a classic band and album "Cerebral Cereal \m/ If you never heard Pyaemia, its a must listen and a classic in my book \m/ But this Monstrosity! Fuck is it sick \m/
Great band!! Worth to listen even for just one song Maelstrom. I remember when first heard song Slaughter of the Soul by At The Gates. It blown my mind. The whole album did not disappointed either. This time time it's Monstrosity! Dig deep, their back catalogue is superb!
Tive a honra de assistir um fudidooo show desses monstros, muito feliz por todos estarem de volta, nosso subterrâneo inferno agradece... É nós... Muito Fodaaa!!!
There are alot of riffs on this album that take me back all the way back to In Dark Purity. Specifically the main riff in " The Proselygeist" reminds me of my favorite track off of In Dark Purity, "Perpetual War". And thats a very good thing.
This KILLS!! I am 51 yrs young and still love this \m/
ahahah i loved the "yrs young"! kakakaa i,ll use it from now on! thanks chief!
42 here, and I can't stop listening to extreme metal. This is life!

The first two chords and you already know it's gonna be a great album

We need more bands that don't fuck around. This is a good standard for death metal
Lee fucking out did himself with his drumming on this one..Great underrated ass drummer..One of the best that old schoold death has to offer..

This band should be considered as one of the death metal legends

This and the newest Terrorizer, which also has Lee Harrison.
You nailed it... Compare this with to latest Morbid Angel stuff or so.... can't compete... This is a hell of an album
The thing with Monstrosity is that they deliver some solid kick-ass Deathmetal with catchy riffs and nice tight drumming and great solo's. It never gets old. They don't want to be the fastest band in the world,and thats fine. Love this album.
They sure used to be one of the fastest bands! This is great though.

FIRST TIME LISTENING TO MONSTROSITY.I AM VERY PLEASED.VERY HEAVY WITH A NICE GROOVE.I WILL BE LISTENING from NOW ON.\,,/
I've listened to this album at least three times a day for the last week! What an album! Contender for best death metal release of 2018 in my eyes!
This album kills,i was really looking forward to this release but i never expected it to be this good,astounding album.
I've been listening to metal for 30 years. I can say without hesitation this is one of the best albums I have ever heard. Absolutely fucking killer. 10/10 all day.
I'd say that about their first 3 albums,1 listen of this,and you'll won't play it for years.
Excelente álbum, Monstrosity dando cátedra de buen Death metal
Now this is authentic Death Metal.....
Says a clean cut guy in a dress shirt.
@@markcooperartcomofficial hahaha
@@markcooperartcomofficial THIS IS REAL DEATH METAL
No, Sir, this is a Taco Bell drive thru. Unless you want a Nachos Bel Grande or something I can't help you.
@@markcooperartcomofficial he's not wrong lol
I never bore listening this album. Awesome Old School Death Metal !!!
Really excellent! Sounds great, very balanced through-out with catchy memorable songs. Awesome complete package honed to high finesse. Best album i've heard in a good while!

Monstrosity always have great albums!
Mind blowing album. Perhaps their best work!
expect no less from a veteran death metal band
most solid new death metal album i've heard next to kingdoms disdained
The best album of 2018....they saved the best for last and this will save me throughout 2019. Greeting all !!!
What a remarkable return. Amazing new album. Hail Monstrosity!!! 🤘💀🤘
I'm not into Death Metal, but this one is really cool. It has great equally melodic and brutal compositions and the emphasis on solos is really satisfying.
Listen to Bolthrovers Those Once Loyal
u will like Melodic death metal. If u like this, u should like Six feet under
@@JohnDoe-rp3mx *Bolt Thrower
@@annakessler9372 Six Feet Under isn't Melodic Death Metal
Sounds like you are into death metal
Imperial Doom was brutal as fook, this one though is a different beast and fookin love it...
One of my best years of my darkest life...new album by BEHEMOTH and MONSTROSITY...let the fucking madness begin 🤘🤘🤘🤘😈
Eargasmic Death Metal, everything is perfect in this album.
Agreed!
Except the production. Way too clean for death metal. Other than that its great
I haven't heard a bad song yet and I'm 34 minutes in. Fantastic!
Estos malditos volvieron desde el averno a sacudirnos y aplastarnos con su furia letal de old death metal, gracias por volver Monstrosity
uno dei migliori gruppi da sempre...disco stupendo ave Monstrosity
Holy **** , what a release..! Absolutely blew any and all of my expectations. Most definitely in my top 10 album releases this year! Welcome back, Monstrosity :-) Way to make up for an 11 year wait.

Great album! Just discovered this band, and they rock! HARD!
can't wait for the new album, this one was a damn masterpiece!
Wow,haven’t heard these guys since “Imperial”……they sound amazing still….and this albums awesome!!
Obra de Arte para el Death Metal!!!
Saludos desde Chile!
Monstro is not back...This is monstrosity ever since .
Such a fucking good album!!! One of the releases that you keep coming back to and that's the proof of a good fucking album with memorable riffs
Awesome album, cant stop listening to The Proselygeist (18:35)
This is really great. Imperial Doom is still my favorite Monstrosity album though.
imperial doom is a masterpiece indeed metal brother
im dark purity is my fav
In Dark Purity is a million miles better.
nah bro millenium is the best
Awesome masterpiece from Monstrosity !!!!
One of the most metal albums I’ve heard in years. Lots of potential this band could hack tone and production wise. Imagine this band being produced by say Seasons of Mist... see what I mean here.
Thank you Lee !
Its already 2021 but this album always knew to me......i really like this album,i kept on listening to monstrosity everytime during working hour,even if it's prohibited....lol
This might be the best death metal album I’ve heard in a long long time probably since the last carcass album surgical steel, yeah it’s that good!
Pure death métal ! Chef d’œuvre !
Great, Florida band! gotta grab the CD
Wow, for so long i though Death Metal is dead. But since started listen to Albums like this or Ungod from Morgoth there is hope again for me
Thanx God !!!
Top one!!!! A MASTERPIECE!!!! forever!!! And Lee Harrison is a super Guy!!!
Yes he is. I'm glad to count him as a friend.
Can't stop listening to this album completely , every time I say just a song or two of it and end up listening to it all again
Banda clásica. Death Metal siempre agradable de escuchar.
Death metal album of the year! Absolutely crushing! \m/

Basslines in Cosmic Pandemia 👌

New Deicide seems good too
That album also kicks ass imo \m/

Best death metal release so far, along with Krisiun!
Both released the same day is almost not fair. Torn between the two!!!! But its a win win.
Both are amazing.
Radosław Kucharzak I just saw Krisiun live 2 days ago. They were fucking amazing ...
David Asus, lucky you are envious of you, I hope that in the near future I will have the opportunity to see them.
And now Revocation's album dropped too!
Finally guys... A -mazing!!!!

This doesn't even sound like Monstrosity, so you can't say it's their best. It's not even the same band.
I bought the digital download and am loving every bit of this album! Definitely worth the wait! All Hail the might Monstrosity!
amazing album
Cosmic pandemia, so prophetic. Anyway awesome album ! Long live deathmetal.
Yeah
Totally agree with You, before The covid19 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶
