DIRTY ROCK
Check us out on show 56 of Monochrome Museum. Dont forget to sign the guestbook telling jon and Moll how ace we are :)
As of 28th February, Monolith are calling it quits - see our latest blog for more details
Monolith, a belligerant group of hard headed dirty rockers.
Poised to bring thier raw agressive music which still retains the contrast
to that of a reminiscent mountain-view, to the global music scene, starting
with thier home town of Stourbridge, UK.
The past has seen different obsticles thrown in the path of the monster
known as "Monolith" but, the band of outcasts
have battled on regardless, kicking up a storm at every turn. Many times
people have (wrongly) deliberated that the band is down and out. The truth
of the matter is, the band is here, in your face and here to stay!
Since the lineup changes in the band of 2005/2006, Monolith
have been striving to get THE material for the upcoming album
"A Story Of Betrayal". From the second quarter
of 2006, the band have the material needed to put said album together.
Monolith
have been compared to many bands in the past, Metallica, Motorhead,
Guns and Roses, Nickelback and many more, but the fact
is, these are the bands creative influences and there was always going
to be similarities. Taking these influences the band has come up with
an original sound, which has been compared to the forgotten sounds of
the 70's, and Monolith are hoping to bring it to the
forefront of rock, with a vengance!
The overall resounding
feeling from the band is that the rock and roll lifestyle is out there,
people are living it, so why the f*** cant they? And rightly so, someone
has to be there, influencing the younger bands, and the aim of the band
is shooting for the moon, In the end, they'll still be chilling with the
stars!
A rocky past ensures
this bands experience, and the scars are the proof. The road lays out
infront of them, all they need to do, is walk the road, and they will
get noticed, though, not without alot of hard work, and effort.
Monolith,
a brutally beautiful combination of crushing guitar riffs, powerful drums,
and the burning sound of the bottom end, topped off with the breaking,
ripped up, Marlboro Red vocals.
Live, Breathe, Eat,
Sleep, MONOLITH!
A Few Quotes; "The vocals sound like a mix of Rob Zombie and James Hetfield... Im also hearing some Dave Mustaine" - Gavin Monoghan (Producer)

Guest support BENEATH THE SURFACE OPEN MIC: Acoustic acts welcome for BASE STUDIO’S Friday night OPEN MIC night. Check out www.myspace.com/basestudios for info
Thanks for supporting Soul Destruction. We are now booking gigs so if you like what you hear, get in touch.
Described as: 'like Soulfly if Trent Reznor were part of the band,' their debut album "There's No Profit in Truth", mixes the pent up frustration of acts such as Rage Against The Machine with the raging, highly charged riffs of classic Machine Head. Good, honest, politically aware and highly charged Metal at its best...
Hi, my debut album '13 ROUNDS...' is out now on iTunes, Play.com, Hmv.com check http://www.vijaykishore.co.uk and the myspace for more information.. Hope all is well and cheers for the support.. spread the word..

“Friday night at BASE STUDIOS in Stourbridge we film
bands and musicians who come down to play the OPEN MIC and we
make promotional videos for FREE. Just turn up at 7pm to play the OPEN MIC. Filming begins at 7pm.
There's always a crew there. The Bar opens at 7pm too and if you want more
people in your video then bring a crowd down with you (It makes your videos
look better)” - Nick

It’s been far too long since I last said hello and so much has happened I thought it about time we said did.
We’ve changed a lot, now we are an “UltraModern, post-electro rock, post-nu rave behemoth where Muse and Mansun meet a Massive Attack with Duran Duran pop sensibilities, louder guitars, and a stunning female front person/guitar virtuoso”, or so we have been told.
I’d love to know what you’ve been up to since we disappeared into the dark damp studio cave, let us know how it’s going, I’m always up for a chat! May your thoughts be Scarlet and your actions Blonde ;-) Dawn xx Scarlet/blonde
