Georg Wilfinger comments on the new album single : "The title track “Washington State Charm” is where things really lock in. Joe wrote this one — same genius behind all of “Unterweger” — and he’s been shaping most of our upcoming new record alongside our drummer Simon. The two of them have been studying jazz together over here at a music conservatory in Austria, and you can hear that push and pull all over this track. It’s technical, but never just for the sake of it — everything still hits with groove, weight, and intent through all the brutality.

 

And the track's story behind it is just as heavy: July 14th, 1974 — Lake Sammamish State Park: Thousands of people out in the sun, families hanging out, swimming, just a normal summer day where nothing’s supposed to go wrong.

But right there, in broad daylight, Ted Bundy used nothing but charm and manipulation to abduct two women — Janice Ott and Denise Naslund. That contrast and false sense of safety, that’s the core of this song.""

Originally founded as a solo project by singer Georg Wilfinger (ex-Miasma) in 2010 in Austria, MONUMENT OF MISANTHROPY has released three studio albums, an EP and a demo up to now. Previous full-length album "Vile Postmortem Irrumatio" was released in August 2024 and drew roaring reviews worldwide.

Those relentless purveyors of auditory violence and “Mindhunters” of brutal Death Metal — have crawled back out of the basement with a brand-new full-length slab of extremity entitled 'Washington State Charm’ .

The new opus is a wholesome little concept album chronicling the coming-of-age story of a serial killer: the awkward upbringing, the early extracurricular activities, and the grand finale on the electric chair, America’s probably most prolific serial killer , Ted Bundy.

 

Georg Wilfinger comments : " While we’ve stayed 100% true to ourselves musically which means constantly reinventing ourselves. We’re pretty damn sure you’re going to love this new album. We obsessed over every microscopic detail, whether it’s a hidden arpeggio, a lyrical pun, or just another described act of unspeakable horror and maybe some truths about Ted you might not even have known yet. This isn’t just another death metal record you half-listen to while bench-pressing.

It’s an experience. A deep look into a very, very sick human being’s brain."

MONUMENT OF MISANTHROPY' s new guest-filled album 'Washington State Charm' is scheduled for a June 26, 2026 release date on Listenable records.
