BrideOfTheMonster.org Like the creation of most gruesome creatures, the inception of Toronto’s most horrific metal band was a complete accident. Bride of the Monster was formed in 2004 by vocalist/bassist J. and drummer Scump with a love for metal and all things macabre, and the intent to create a soundtrack for gore. While in the midst of producing an independent horror film, the two began working on the music to go along with it. With images of hacking limbs, surgical procedures and the walking dead as sources of musical inspiration, J. and Scump soon began to realize their brutal rock-driven death metal kicked unholy ass, thus putting the film on the backburner to concentrate on more songwriting. Bringing Dan and then-second guitarist Joe into the band in 2006, Bride of the Monster headed to the studio to record their debut EP Plague of Ages. While the band was still in an infantile stage, the record garnered high praise in the pages of a number of magazines including Brave Words & Bloody Knuckles in Canada and Zero Tolerance overseas. Legendary metal publication Metal Maniacs was among the most complimentary to Bride of the Monster’s creative approach at brutal death metal, saying Plague of Ages, “Rips ya wide open with gore and gall right out the gate. Spines are pulled through necks with ease in this rock n’ rip onslaught.” And like a slithering infection, word of the EP quickly began to spread, creating a buzz throughout the underground and online metal circuit
