Monarch - Omens

Review by Willie Hines

The album Omens by Monarch is an impressive work of art that showcases the band's ability to create a powerful and atmospheric sound. The album consists of six tracks, each one delivering a unique and captivating experience for the listener.

Monarch's use of heavy, distorted guitars and haunting vocals creates a dark and eerie atmosphere that is both mesmerizing and unsettling. The album's opening track, "Immortal Soul," sets the tone for what's to come, with its slow-building intensity and ominous melody.

The album's title track, "Omens," is a standout, with its driving rhythm and soaring vocals. The track builds to a powerful climax, leaving the listener feeling both exhilarated and emotionally drained.

Throughout the album, Monarch's musicianship is on full display, with intricate guitar work and dynamic drumming adding depth and texture to the songs. The production is also top-notch, with each element of the band's sound perfectly balanced and clear.

This borders somewhere between drone and funeral doom metal I think. Good stuff.
J'ai du arrêter l'écoute tellement ca m'absorbait. J'étais juste assomé, badant qu'une musique puisse te foutre une pression pareille. Mais c'est ce qui en fait une musique magnifique. J'ai pas le vocabulaire nécessaire pour décrire ce qui m'est arrivé. Magique.

Cool like no one liked any of the comments.. It's because of the hypnotizing stoner drone power.
