MONSTRO - Debut Album Available September 6th
June 7, 2011, 13 years ago
MONSTRO have announced a September 6th release date for their self-titled debut release, through Vagrant Records.
The Atlanta, Georgia-headquartered psychedelic hard rock band recorded MonstrO in just 14 days with ALICE IN CHAINS vocalist William DuVall in the producer’s seat.
Formed in 2009, MonstrO is guitarist Juan Montoya [ex-TORCHE], bassist Kyle Sanders [ex-BLOODSIMPLE], drummer Bevan Davies [ex-Bloodsimple, DANZIG], and vocalist and guitarist Charlie Suarez.
“We didn’t waste a moment (in the studio), and it worked like a band is supposed to work,” said Sanders. “The album gets spacey, dreamy, and tripped-out, and then it gets straight-up heavy. I want it to be some kind of escape for people and for them to walk away from it happy and feeling completed in some way.”Fans can catch MonstrO live on tour this fall when they support KYUSS LIVES! and THE SWORD on one of the most highly anticipated rock tours of the season. The tour begins in Toronto, Ontario on September 16th and includes stops in major cities across the US before wrapping up in Pomona, California at the Fox Theater on October 8th.
