European modern metal outfit STELLVRIS have unleashed their explosive new single “Monster,” available now on all streaming platforms. The official “Monster” music video has also premiered, amplifying the track’s raw intensity.
“Monster” confronts the draining dynamic of a toxic relationship—whether romantic, platonic, or professional—where one person bends over backwards to understand and appease red flags, only to realize that self-sacrifice isn’t sustainable. When push comes to shove, you reclaim your voice, your power, and say enough is enough. STELLVRIS crafted this track to empower anyone stuck in a damaging dynamic, giving them the courage to walk away.
Musically, “Monster” is a high-voltage fusion of modern metal and electronic textures, anchored by an epic soaring chorus and culminating in a jaw-dropping finale that nobody sees coming. Produced, mixed, and mastered by Christoph Wieczorek (Electric Callboy, Annisokay), the “Monster” single delivers world-class sonic clarity and intensity.
“‘Monster’ is our most unapologetic track yet,” explains vocalist Nicol. “We wanted to create an anthem that speaks to anyone who’s ever stretched themselves too thin for someone who doesn’t deserve it. This song is your permission slip to break free.”
“Monster” also features on STELLVRIS’s forthcoming EP, due this fall. With a string of European and UK tour dates already confirmed, including their appearance at Summer Breeze, the band is charging into a breakout year. “We can’t wait to bring ‘Monster’ to the stage and watch fans scream every word back at us,” says Nicol.
