“Monster" is an exploration into the eternal, internal human struggle with fear, envy and jealousy (Invidia). It is a battle of wills, a fight for dominance and the chaos that ensues. With a tone that is both majestic and raucous; elegant and jagged, the song is dramatic and demands attention. The track reveals an internal conflict that is played out for all to hear and feel, and all will recognise within themselves. Artwork inspired by and featuring ‘Invidia’; The Seven Capital Sins by French artist Jaques Callot (ca 1620).
