YMMV / The Monolith Deathcult

• Complete Monster: In the discography of this band with a love of Horrible History Metal and all things morbid, there are a few figures who stand out as especially nasty:
  • "Forest of Flesh"; "Cathedral of Corpses (Slayer of Jihad Part I)"; & "The Desecration of the Black Stone (Slayer of Jihad Part II)": Vlad the Impaler is a cruel, warmongering ruler in the Balkans with a burning hatred of Islam and its practitioners. Out of sadism and bloodlust, he has thousands of Turkish troops impaled to create a "forest of death" that horrifies the Ottoman Sultan into fleeing. Rising from the dead as a horrific vampire, he and his minions feed on the living, while he enacts a plan to forever eradicate Islam by scouring large parts of the Middle East with fire.
  • "The Deserved Reputation of Cruelty": Attila the Hun is a brutal, barbaric warmonger known for his love of war and his hatred of the Roman Empire. The self-proclaimed "scourge of the gods", he and his troops engage in wanton looting and destruction, even going so far as to devour the flesh of their enemies. Swearing not to stop until he reaches Rome itself, Attila leaves a trail of carnage in his wake as he carves a bloody path through the Empire.
  • "The Cruel Hunters": Amin al-Husseni is the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem and a vicious antisemite. Seeing the Nazi regime as his allies, he makes an agreement with the Axis Powers and relocates to Europe. With logistical support from the Nazi higher-ups, he recruits Balkan Muslims into the SS and indoctrinates them into a combination of Nazism and his own perverse form of Islam. Under his influence, these recruits engage in cruelty that shocks even other Nazis, while he assists in sending Jews to death camps in occupied Poland.
  • "The Furious Gods (Gabriel's Song)": Heinrich Himmler is an occultist Nazi and the Reichsführer-SS. Obsessed with purity, he seeks to eradicate everybody he considers subhuman and use magic to transform Waffen-SS soldiers into true "troops of doom" to secure the future of the so-called Aryan race. Taking an interest in Germany's nuclear program, he seeks to combine magic and technology to create a series of mystical atomic weapons which he intends to use to wipe out the enemies of the Third Reich.
