The Monster Coat Project

The Monster Coat Project is the name of a musical project with which Eth Eonel seeks to make truly experimental, intricate and heavy music, with strict rules regarding both composing, writing and recording the songs. This idea was born in 2006, but the project name itself is older, stemming from a collaboration Eth had planned with his friend Frank Albert Coates in 1998. The current form of the project is unrelated.

The first song written as a test of the rules, was the song "Default" from 2007, though this recording was later redefined to fit in with the "Paradigm Shit" song cycle. In 2009, the titles for all songs on the first two albums were decided by random googling. The lyrics for the three first songs were written in August of 2020, and the very first recordings started in January 2023.
