Monotremata was formed in December 2005 in good old Ventura, CA, by one Chris Coccia. It began as a project called Taishakuten, but after lineup changes, rearrangements, new sounds, etc., it was decided the machine had become a new beast.
Originally a duo of Chris Coccia (guitars/vocals) and Casey Shropshire (Ex-Uphill Battle, Bass/Vocals) and an Alesis SR-16, Martin Ayala jumped on shortly after to take up the drums. Initially just the ‘live’ drummer, things moved quickly and real percussion was soon part of the regular rotation.
The first demo, featuring the duo/drum machine line up, was quickly put together and released in time for a string of local shows in Feb 2006. Recording on a full-length, full-band effort began in Dec 2006… After some delays, the album was finally finished and ready to go in August 2007. With no options really, the band will be releasing this as a cd-r available only from us.
With influences including the obvious Godflesh, Swans, Halo, Neurosis, Black Sabbath, Pink Floyd, Black Flag, even some black metal bits… The goal isnt necessarily to be the uber extreme or push any boundaries… Although we wouldnt complain if that happened, were just out to jam some heavy music that we enjoy playing. We hope you like it too.
