5.0 out of 5 stars ooooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!, 2 Jun 2006
By Jackdaw (N. Ireland) - See all my reviews
This is an amazing album, I knew not to expect another into the pandemonium 2 but little else except that ground kept changing from the original version but the final version is proabably the best other than that had heard nothing else nor wanted to, I really needed to listen to this album whole instead of bits and pieces and it was worth it, this album sounds different to all the previous albums but of course there was always going to be female singers and some orchestration.

This album is both powerful and groovy with some of the heaviest riffs I have ever heard as well as faster thrasier riffs. At times monotheist remind me of the sisters of mercy and bauhaus (but with huge f&*(&^g monstorous riffs) as well as the worst nightmare you ever had. Monotheist isn't grey it's pitch black.

Tom's voice is even more powerful than usual favouring deeper harsher vocals than his previous death like growls also changing his vocal style to breathless chants or laid back throaty vocals as well as the electronically altered screams of totengott the first part of triptych before synagoga satanae (witch references the sound of triumph of death from hellhammer)

This is a varied album none of the songs sound like any of the others although drown in ashes and obscured are commercial without selling out their heaviness . All the songs on the album work together that is there is nothing there that shouldn't be there.

The best album they have ever made(it may not be as out there as into the pandemonium but songwise the quality is a million times better) This is a band that know exactly what they are doing and doing it with great style.

Long live Celtic Frost.

5.0 out of 5 stars A work of art, 5 Jun 2006
By Lexx (Worcestershire, UK) - See all my reviews
This is everything i needed to hear from such a monumental band, finally making their comeback after fifteen years. This album is so good, i won't bother to waste superlatives, suffice to say that 'Monotheist' is Celtic Frost's 'Master of Puppets' or 'Reign In Blood'. They could easily have produced a generic Euro-Metal album that would keep all the goth-metallers happy, but instead they have taken their time, and created an unbelievably original piece that is their most satisfying and fully-realised yet.
A special mention must go to the fantastic guitar sound: a huge, claustrophic wall of valve-amp distortion. The riffs are slow, grinding and almost primeval in their mantra-like simplicity. Tom G's vocals are well developed and varied, at times sounding like a demonic Bowie. The overall atmosphere is one of depression, isolation and bleakness, with an authenticity i haven't heard since Joy Division. This is a landmark rock album, and to have produced such an assured work at this stage in their career must surely make all the recent rock reunions seem utterly trivial and pointless. Like i said - this is 'art'.

5.0 out of 5 stars Frosty, 29 Jul 2006
By Tolstoy the cat (Stockport, UK) - See all my reviews
This sounds like the album that should have come after Pandemonium. The band seem to have done some near-mainstream stuff (Cold Lake, Vanity/Nemesis), gone away and had a think for 15 years, then come back and deliver their best album yet.

The first 30 seconds are so are taken up with Celtic Frost saying "Look, sunshine. We were dressing up like tossers and calling each other silly names before you were bloody born." Having got that off their chests, they then go on to create such a huge range of styles and moods that the reason they were always so highly regarded comes flooding back.

If only more of the modern black metal bands were capable of cramming so many ideas into a single album.

This is good stuff.
