Monstrosity?

[DeathRattle12]

anything good by Monstrosity? no big deal, i just came across them and wondered what people thought

ibm

anyways, their older stuff is better, but theyre pretty standard death metal
~gR~

Imperial Doom is a mandatory death metal classic. Millenium is worth looking into also regardless not being as good.

 

[Belligerent]

Spiritual Apocalypse is a great album so thats what i'll recommend.
I've been meaning to check out their older stuff.

Same here, except I don't know any of their albums. There are three american DM bands I wanted to check - Monstrosity, Malevolent Creation and Immolation.

Decided to start with Malevolent Creation, bought The Will to Kill and Warkult yesterday, so far I like what I listened to.

I only have In Dark Purity, but it's pretty good

This is right.

In Dark Purity is painfully mediocre. Don't bother.

This is an excellent album. Listen not to WaiF.

What do you find good about it? Weak production, forgettable songs, awkward style, inconsistent song-writing, pointless attempts to be epic, and really shitty cover art.

No one is gonna rec Rise to Power?

The title track is one of my favorite death metal songs ever.

And yes... IDP has some of the shittiest death metal album artwork of all time.

I like the varied songwriting and the unique riffs.

I love Monstrosity, they are easily one of my favorite bands out there. I have Spiritual Apocalypse, Rise To Power, In Dark Purity, and that shitty Brazillian 02 live album. Avoid the live album to start with, but definitely go for Spirtual Apocalypse first, it is the perfect balance (imo) of melody and brutality and work your way back. As for the two Corpsegrinder albums, I haven't heard a lot of those, but what I have heard was tremendous, and since I'm a 'Grinder fanboy, I'd say get them ASAP as well. Monstrosity really does no wrong, ever.

Get ahold of "Enslaving the Masses"

has demos from various older albums & another live disc.
Several times a year, they're one of my favorite bands & the rest of the time they're not. All their earlier albums seem to have different production, although the music is similar and great.

I was thinking that one would be better. I tried to order it recently from a local store and for whatever reason they couldn't/didn't get it in, so I'll check it out on amazon.
