Monads - IVIIV (2017)

Our new label, Aesthetic Death Records from the UK, said this about our new album: "Six years after their last release - the new Monads album 'IVIIV' will be released in December 2017. Expect a 50 minute masterpiece of melancholy, anguish and crushing heavy doom. Four odes to loss and the contemplation of those fragments of fading hope. Beautiful album."
