This marks the band&#8217;s first full-length in seven years, showcasing their signature combination of aggression, technical precision, and uncompromising intensity.<\/p>\n<p>Led by drummer, founder, and primary songwriter <strong>Lee Harrison<\/strong>, the band&#8217;s lineup is stronger than ever, featuring long-standing guitarist <strong>Matt Barnes<\/strong>, the triumphant return of original bassist <strong>Mark Van Erp<\/strong>, and new vocalist <strong>Ed Webb<\/strong> (ex-<strong>Massacre<\/strong>). <strong>Webb<\/strong>&#8216;s guttural, visceral delivery injects fresh energy while honoring the brutal death metal legacy <strong>Monstrosity<\/strong> is known for.<\/p>\n<p>The album&#8217;s ten tracks exemplify the band&#8217;s mastery of extreme metal. Standout cuts like &#8220;Banished To The Skies&#8221; and &#8220;The Atrophied&#8221; deliver bone-crushing riffs, intricate drumming, and vivid lyrical imagery, while &#8220;The Dark Aura&#8221; and &#8220;Fortunes Engraved In Blood&#8221; showcase <strong>Monstrosity<\/strong>&#8216;s ability to evolve, adding new sonic dimensions without sacrificing ferocity. Each track underscores the band&#8217;s technical prowess and unwavering commitment to the genre.<\/p>\n<p>Production for <em>Screams From Beneath The Surface<\/em> was split across multiple studios to ensure sonic perfection. Drums, bass, and mixing were handled at Audiohammer Studios with producer <strong>Jason Suecof<\/strong> (<strong>The Black Dahlia Murder<\/strong>, <strong>Deicide<\/strong>), while vocals, guitars, and mastering were completed at the legendary Morrisound Studios, reuniting with producer <strong>Jim Morris<\/strong> alongside <strong>Mark Prator<\/strong> and <strong>BJ Ramone<\/strong>. The album&#8217;s striking cover art, crafted by <strong>Timbul Cahyono<\/strong>, is fully hand-drawn, reflecting the raw authenticity of <strong>Monstrosity<\/strong>&#8216;s music.<\/p>\n<p>Ahead of the album release, <strong>Monstrosity<\/strong> has dropped the first single, &#8220;The Colossal Rage&#8221;. The track delivers an immediate, punishing impact, with Webb&#8217;s monumental vocals, <strong>Van Erp<\/strong>&#8216;s relentless bass, and <strong>Barnes<\/strong>&#8216; scorching lead guitar work. <strong>Harrison<\/strong>&#8216;s original themes form the backbone of the song, elevated through collaboration with <strong>Barnes<\/strong>, resulting in a devastating musical assault designed to overwhelm listeners.<\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.metalblade.com\/monstrosity\">Pre-orders for <em>Screams From Beneath The Surface<\/em> are available here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\">\n<div class=\"jeg_video_container jeg_video_content\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Monstrosity - The Colossal Rage (Official Video)\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/rBvrXQ64oDA?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<div class=\"zox-post-body left zoxrel zox100\">\n\t\t<strong style=\"display: block;margin: 0 auto;max-width: 660px;font-size: 1.625rem;\">Want More Metal?
