MONUMENTAL DESTRUCTION

"This is an amazing blend of black metal and German thrash, featuring Aldrahn, Vicotnik, Alver, and Apollyon. Despite the influences of Destruction, Kreator, and the like, Monumental Possession is still rather unique. There are different vocalists (Vicotnik has one of the most extreme vocal styles in black metal) along with the blackened poetics of Aldrahn. What came after was not guaranteed to satisfy fans of the first two albums, but I like it. However, any black metal fans are encouraged to try out Kronet til Konge and Monumental Possession, they are well worth your time. Oh, and incidentally the tempos are not standard thrash but much faster."

"If you like brutal and raw Black Metal, and hail the old German thrash gods such as Kreator and Sodom, then buy this cd. It ranks very high in my devastatingly large collection of cd's. This recording has it all...sick vocals (two singers), speed, slow brutal parts and morbid ambience. My only criticism is that the words are in English, and not in Norwegian. Buy this and "Kronet til Konge" and lament this now sadly dead and turned poser band...but what else is new?"
