Peter Ellis, the voice of MONUMENT quotes: “Attila was one of these men of history who were more like a force of nature than human beings and I felt that the music I had for the song fitted him perfectly so I wrote the lyrics based around his story. I am very proud of how this song came together.”

Twin guitar melodies, loud bass tones, thundering drums and soaring tenor vocals are all present in abundance. Lyrically, the album draws inspiration from a variety of sources like history, urban London life, the occult and personal relationships.
Tony Newton’s inclusion as the band’s producer has captured the band’s real sound for the first time and that sound is unmistakably British. To drop a few more names, the album was engineered by the band’s very own guitarist Dan Baune. Produced and mixed by Tony Newton (Iron Maiden – Producer of “The Book Of Souls: Live Chapter) at Barnyard Studio, Essex, UK and mastered by Ade Emsley at Table of Tone Mastering.
Hellhound’s artwork, design, and layout was done by graphic designer Stan W. Decker (Masterplan, Vanden Plas, Resurrection Kings, Stryper).
