*RSD19* Monolord's 12-minute cover of Black Sabbath classic "Fairies Wear Boots” finally gets the vinyl treatment. The song has been posted across all platforms. Monolord's recently released third album, Rust received universal praise in reviews, and landed atop multiple Album of The Year lists for 2017 -- including the #1 Album of 2017 on the Doom Chartscollective of journalists, bloggers, radio and podcasters. Rust is available to hear & share on YouTubeand Bandcamp. Monolord is a rare breed: A band both encompassing and transcending genre; a vortex of heavy rock density that consumes all others. Their thunderous, tuneful heft has built a rabid international fanbase in short order since their 2014 debut.

Not riffs for riffs sake, but a collective buzzing, rattling and rumbling that's more total environment than collection of songs.
