Monolith, or The Monolith Deathcult as they like to call themselves, is a new band with former members of Eternal Conspiracy, Exposing Innards and To Elysium and make pure brutal Death metal inline with bands like Nile, Aborted and Sepsism. They have a new album out called The Apotheosis But the review will describe their demo MCD called Obliteration Of The Despised. The first song is Doomed To Slaughter and it instantly crushes out the speakers. The vocals are brutal, menacing and deep. It�s obvious the right combination for a brutal death metal band. The lyrics are all inline with Michiel, the vocalist, because of the anti-islamic content. Songs like Cathedral of Corpses (Slayer of Jihad) and Doomed To Slaughter are about this. Next song on the MCD is The Deserved Reputation Of Cruelty which is a various song with some rhythmic changes. You can hear the more Morbid Angel/Cannibal Corpse like riffs in this song. But fortunately the most of the album is faster. There are about 1000 bands which all try to sound like CC or MB and that has to stop. Monolith creates a more unique sound with the better crushing parts of death metal in it. About all of the songs on the album are with a very high quality and I would recommend this to listeners who like pure death metal.
