Their fifth album “Vortex” was released just last year, being received enthusiastically by the public, showing once again how they manage to break the postrock barriers.
Although included in the family of post rock, the band doesn’t limit their creativity, using influences from experimental, progressive and post hardcore in their music. Within the domains of post metal, the Spanish Toundra are certainly a reference, known by their instrumental atmospheric music, which leads the listener through complex and exciting experiences. It is now more than time, to finally receive the heavy magic rock purveyors in Portugal.
With two full-length records released (the debut one on Rise Above Records and the latest one on Century Media Records), the band counts now with a solidified lineup, featuring Joahnna on vocals, Robin Tidebrink on lead guitar (also from Saturn), Alexander Mayr on bass, Martin Nordin on guitar (also from Dead Lord) and Nicke Anderson on drums (also from Entombed, Imperial State Electric and ex-The Hellacopters). In 2018, they’ve signed a record deal with Relapse Records, preparing the release of their fourth studio album in late 2019.įormed in 2014 by the frontwoman Johanna Sadonis, Lucifer could be easily considered a heavy rock supergroup in this day and age.
Releasing three excellent albums in a four year span, all through the Californian label Riding Easy Records, these three Swedes toured all over the world, spreading among everyone their massive sound, with outstanding live performances. Practicing the art of doom metal since 2013, Monolord have been preaching the power of the riff in a categoric way.
