Listenable records and MONUMENT OF MISANTHROPY have just joined forces though a multi album deal.
Austrian MONUMENT OF MISANTHROPY was originally founded as a solo project by singer Georg Wilfinger (ex-Miasma) in 2010.
In 2012, the project evolved into a studio band with drummer Romain Goulon (ex-Necrophagist) and guitarist Jean-Pierre Battesti, releasing the demo ‘Bandroom Misanthropy’.
The trio then decided to record and self release their debut album ‘Anger Mismanagement’.Due to the level of awareness of the founding members, especially Romain Goulon whose band Necrophagist was on a hiatus at the time and still is, the teasers for the album found their way into the scene media attention and brutal death metal afficionados.
Having honed their frenzy and viciously blasting death metal with great dexterity, surgical precision at numerous occasions during European tours with Belphegor, Vader, Immolation, Suffocation among many others, MONUMENT OF MISANTHROPY released their third and strongest studio album ‘Vile Postmortem Irrumatio’ in 2024 .The album cover was featured in the 3rd and final edition of the famous ‘Aesthetics of Sickness III – Dark Morbid Obsessions’ book trilogy. ‘Vile Postmortem Irrumatio’ received critical acclaim worldwide , some are :
| “This album is easily one of the best albums of not only brutal death, but death metal in general this year” – Broken Tomb (Spain) 10/10 “Multi-faceted and exciting” – Music reviews (Germany) “A brutal death metal album like it hasn’t been heard in a long time” – Brutalism (Netherlands) 5/5 “This hits hard in the most enjoyable way” – Angry Metal Guy (US) 4.5/5 “it’s the kind of death metal born from brutality but executed with precision… they RIP! ” – Decibel Magazine (US) “They are as brutal as the source material, and in doing so have dropped one of the albums of the year” – Musipedia of Metal (UK) 10/10 |
Always hungry for new insane musical patterns, MONUMENT OF MISANTHROPY is now ready to start working on their forthcoming audio slaughter for Listenable .
Get ready for a furious dose of implacable madness !.
