Monuments Emerge chronicles the work of Asian-American composer Nicholas Vasallo (b. 1979). Fusing Western classical music, Asian classical music, and heavy metal, Vasallo's work plumbs the inner depths where these traditions unite, finding their roots in order to draw them out into vast sonic landscapes. Vasallo is pulling threads together, even as he seeks to push at the boundaries that have traditionally separated musical traditions.
Vasallo likes violence, speed, and a sense of dread. … Even when he engages in softer dynamics, there is definitely still a sense of absolute dread that creates tension despite the music’s reserved nature. The moments when he brings in a heavy crash of violence, however, are pretty profound and shriek at the listener like souls of the undead crying as they mourn in the river Styx.
