Dr. Monster was formed Jan 2010 to help kill time while VonToxics band Horror Story looked for a new drummer. Toxic switched to drums with flat mates Stefan X on guitar & Dave Monster picking up the bass. Soon joined by local metal vocalist Mike Jacques making the line up complete.
Halloween 2011 saw the release of From Beyond (at the bands second show). Consisting of 2 recording sessions done pretty much live in the studio. Their sound is melodic horror punk with some doom metal & death rock mixed in. The vocals are the icing on this cake, vocalist Mike Jacques sounds nothing like any of The Misfits singers but can croon with the best of them.
It turned out this was just the beginning, after adding 2nd guitarist Glen Reaper, the band returned with the follow up album Death Devine released early 2012! This time the production & songwriting bring a mature sound & originality making it a must have for any fan of horror punk/death/dark rock & gothic metal! The band can be heard on their facebook page & horror-punks.com profile.
