UK tech metal band MONUMENTS have officially announced their new singer, Chris Barretto! After leaving Periphery, Barretto performed with The Haarp Machine and did saxophone on TESSERACT’s current album Altered State. He already passed his fire test on a tiny stage during a secret show on June 27 as well as on a massive one during Ghostfest this past weekend.Â
Chris Barretto said this on joining MONUMENTS: “Greetings everyone! It’s an honour to be joining the MONUMENTS team and Century Media family. I have a great love for the music that these guys create and I’m very much looking forward to being a part of that creative process. As I’m sure you all know, MONUMENTS has had a rich history long before my being here and that is something that I don’t want to step on and intend to honour to the best of my abilities. Now that I am here, I invite all of you to come on a musical journey into the future with us, the new generation of MONUMENTS. Hope to see you all at the upcoming gigs!”Â
