Hard Rock/Alternative Metal Quartet Modern Monsters Unleash Their Self-Titled EP "Modern Monsters"

Modern Monsters began after Brody Bass, Rich Wells, and Keenan Tuohy decided to move on from an older music project they belonged to and move into a heavy rock direction. Through trial and error of multiple guitarist and vocals, the trio eventually found Wyatt Lennon, a high school friend of Keenan Tuohy, and vocalist Josh Weaver, who was found through an audition. The most important part of the group is the chemistry and brotherhood formed between the band members, and their love of music.

The group focuses on members writing collectively instead of having one main writer, constantly challenging each other, and pushing each other to find their individual identity and expressive element of the band. This leads to the high-energy, fun-loving power drumming of Keenan Tuohy, the loud and aggressive hard moshing guitar riffs and blazing solos from Wyatt Lennon, the mind bending experimental psychedelic shoegazing overtones mixed with the equally blazing solos of Rich Wells, the always solid hard thumping melodic bass lines from Brody Bass, and vocals that flow from melodic and thought provoking into screams of release from Josh Weaver.

While the band works hard and meticulously in the studio, they pride themselves in their live performance. As hard as they work to find themselves in the music they write, they encourage their audience to do the same as participants in their music. After all, there is no band, if there is no audience. Besides being a seriously thought-out band, they love nothing more than being around their fans and engaging with them on and off the stage, showing their dedication not just to their own self-expression, but the feelings and thoughts of the audience that joins them.

The band has unveiled their brand new 3-track self-titled EP, “Modern Monsters”, which includes songs that showcase the band's heavy, energized grooves coupled with an experimental, dynamic spirit.

Speaking about the EP, Modern Monsters say:

“Our music comes from our angst about social issues surrounding us in our society. This EP is an expression of our frustrations and our want to move forward in a world that works together to solve our issues instead of becoming constantly divided. We wanted to write something to make people realize we are all in this together and can overcome our negative mindsets. We created heavy music mixed with experimental, melodic, textures to guide the listeners through their personal revolution.”
