Sylosis - Monolith (2012)

The truly monolithic sound of Sylosis covers the bases of melodic death metal and modern thrash, always adding special, unique touches that help them stand far apart from the crowd. Not only on a musical but also on a thematic level, the image of an almost insurmountable rock of monumental magnitude literally forces itself on the listener when listening to the aptly-titled 'Monolith.' Enthralling narratives on the basis of Greek mythology are cast in a lyrical mold, and musically Sylosis proves they are worthy of all extolments by delivering a record that stretches the listener to the limit.
