MONUMENTS premieres new single, "Doxa", and cover art of debut album, 'Gnosis' | As torchbearers of the UK tech metal scene, MONUMENTS has already forged their complex soundscapes into the minds of thousands with their 3 track EP, We Are The Foundation, and now the band is ready to release their debut full-length album, Gnosis, this August! Due out August 27th in Europe, August 28th in North America, and August 31st in Australia/NZ, Gnosis combines aggressive angular grooves and a spacious melodic ambience that is punchy, yet progressive. The addition of Matt Rose's broad vocal spectrum adds a new innovative dimension to their complex musical landscape, merging tight, chaotic grooves, screams, and cinematic choruses with hooks that will taunt you for hours.
