From the opening self-titled track until the closing "Lionheart", Hair of the Dog is a thunderous and powerful album with references to Iron Maiden and the British heavy metal steel. Without being original, Monument deliver a stream of energetic songs with an 80s-era vibe. Very nice production, catching every detail from pompous bass kicks to elevated high-vocal tones. Recommendations: "Imhotep (The High Priest)", "Crobar", "Blood Red Sky", "Lionheart"
