Imperial Doom is the debut album by Florida death metal band Monstrosity. It was released on May 26, 1992,[1] through Nuclear Blast. The album sold 40,000 copies worldwide and received excellent ratings in the press. The album was supported by a European tour, but a little later, following disagreements regarding royalties, Monstrosity left Nuclear Blast.
Legacy
Joe DaVita of Loudwire said "Musically, the quintet shared Morbid Angel’s penchant for technical mastery, concentrated power, and intellectual heresy, and they probably languished in their shadow, as a result. But 1992’s ‘Imperial Doom’ was a death metal humdinger in its own right, full of promising qualities that were unfortunately derailed when Monstrosity’s lineup collapsed, killing all their momentum."[2]
