Monolord is a doom/sludge metal and heavy rock band hailing from Gothenburg, Sweden. Formed in 2013, their music is a powerful fusion of dark, heavy riffs and mesmerizing melodies that captivate listeners with its raw intensity. Drawing inspiration from bands like Sleep, Windhand, and YOB, Monolord has carved out their own unique sound within the genre.
With their thunderous bass lines, crushing guitar tones, and haunting vocals, Monolord creates an immersive sonic experience that transports fans to another realm. Their music resonates with those who appreciate the darker side of rock and metal.
Having gained recognition for their impressive live performances and critically acclaimed albums such as "Empress Rising" and "Rust," Monolord continues to push boundaries and expand the horizons of doom metal. With each release, they solidify their position as one of the leading forces in the genre.

Welcome to Relapse, an American metal, hardcore/punk and experimental label founded by Matthew F. Jacobson. With a diverse range of styles including death metal, grindcore, metalcore, sludge, industrial, post-rock, synthwave, and black metal among others, we are dedicated to bringing you the best in heavy music.

Our label has a rich history with previous sublabels such as Release Entertainment and Desolation House that focused on ambient/dark ambient genres. We also have exciting series like Cult Classic and Relapse Singles Series that showcase exceptional talent from our roster.

Since 2016, all our new vinyl releases and reissues come with stickers featuring a unique 7 character code in the format LPXXXXR. This code is used as a stock keeping unit (SKU) to differentiate vinyl color variants. Please note that this code should not be confused with the actual catalog number which starts with RR.

Swedish power trio Monolord return with their mammoth new album, Your Time to Shine. Recorded by Monolord drummer Esben Willems at Studio Berserk, Your Time to Shine sees the trio looking inward, cultivating the elements that take their monstrous, heavy riffing to new heights with a darker edge. A five-track journey that spans across crushing doom rock to more spacey, groove laden opuses, Your Time to Shine is Monolord at their most unfiltered and focused.

Out of the gate, Monolord kick-off a wild ride with the soaring, fist-raising opener “The Weary” and its insanely catchy melodies. Elsewhere, the stop/start switch between sweetness and abrasiveness of “To Each Their Own” showcases a new element to the band’s repertoire. Monolord embraces the power of the riff with pulsating chugs on “I’ll Be Damned” and the mind-expanding title-track, whose final section brings back some of the band's spaced-out rock n’ roll beginnings. Everything culminates in their new epic, “The Siren Of Yersinia”, whose lonesome call can be heard in each feedback-ridden note and in each pained, buried vocal line.

Your Time to Shine is yet another turn for Monolord. While the band clearly stays on “Riff Street”, they are poised to find darker avenues.
