Biography

Monotheist is gearing up to release their second LP entitled Scourge. The new album sees the band taking their progressive and technical style of metal into the next stage of their musical evolution, which includes more sophisticated song structures and further explorations into the classical and jazz realms that have long been a part of the band's sound. Despite the experimental and adventurous nature ever-present within the band, no-holds-barred death metal continues to be the foundation and core of Monotheist's sound, with plenty of brutal riffage that will leave no lover of extreme metal disappointed. Joining on bass is a rising star of the Orlando jazz scene, Jose Figueroa and DeLand, FL resident shredder Tyler McDaniel (ex-Gigan) on second guitar and vocals, bringing their unique sounds and contributions to the band's new compositions. Monotheist's new album was mixed and mastered by Aaron Smith (Envisage Audio) and will feature guest contributions from metal luminaries such as Bobby Koelble (ex-Death, Death to All) and Christian Alvestam (ex-Scar Symmetry), as well as other talented members of the progressive death metal community, plus the stunning artwork courtesy of Sam Nelson. Scourge is sure to be a powerful testament to the musical legitimacy and thrilling nature of progressive and death metal.
