Personally, i don't care too much for the album monotheist. It is a good album, but I was expecting more out of it.

I think it's fantastic. It's a good album, but also a fantastic breath of fresh air after some of CF's other releases (Cold Lake D: )

The only other Celtic Frost album I've listened to was Vanity Nemesis, and in comparison, Monotheist is amazing.

I love 'Vanity/Nemesis', I don't know why so many people don't rate it highly. In any case, it's a bit hard to compare 'Monotheist' to any of the older material, because it's so bloody different in style.

Legendary band, I can't get the song Ground out of my head, but i'm glad I can't . I just bought Monotheist yesterday and it was worth every penny.

Ground is a fantastic song.

I'm so fucking curious about how the next album will sound. But I guess it'll take a while for it to come, well well... we at least have the Hellhammer demos to look forward to.

PS. Wonder if they'll finish their Requiem on the next album?

I haven't heard any of Celtic Frost's music. Which album would u guys recomend I get first?

"To Mega Therion" if you can find it... "Monotheist" and "Morbid Tales" (reissued with the "Emperor's Return" ep) are also great albums.

"Monotheist" is the one you are most likely to find - at least if you, like me, buy your music.

I love Celtic Frost. Circle of Tyrants, and Ground are my 2 favorite songs. Has anyone else heard Anthrax's cover of Dethroned Emperor? I was disappointed....but then again that was back during Anthrax's Stomp 442 days and pretty much everything off of that album sucks. Anyway, Frost kicks ass.

Ah yes, just getting some head banging going to "Dethroned Emperor." I can't say that I'm a huge fan of Celtic Frost, but I no doubt enjoy them and respect them for what they've done.

There's a lot I still don't know about Celtic Frost. That's a big lapse in my musical culture which I intend to annul shortly.
I only know "Monotheist" properly, and it's an album I fell in love with instantly. But it seems to me to be very different from their previous works, from what I've listened to so far.

Tom Gabriel Fischer has left Celtic Frost,it will be the end of them??

I certainly hope not, Monotheist was a really good album, I just found out about his departure today although it was announced about a week ago, if I'm correct.

I certainly hope so. Celtic Frost without Tom is no Celtic Frost. I was so sad when I heard the news, still am.

Stop the crying people. Bands split up, that's a fact of life. And Celtic Frost already split up years and years ago. And IMO only reunited because everyone was talking about them and Tom saw money in that, I think. That Monotheist turned to be good was just pure luck IMO.

Yeah, but it's sad that they split up when they released such a great album. The first time they had already released Cold Lake and Vanity/Nemesis, two piles of shit!

Call me pessimistic, but I don't think they should try to continue without Tom. He was more than just a vocalist, he was their soul. Maybe it's better to preserve a great memory of CF in their golden days and finish now, than to let them decay, should they find someone who's not up to the task (which is most likely to happen).

Everything before those two I also regard as pieces of shit, though not as crap as Hellhammer (now THAT was/is REALLy crap).

You could also be glad they split up after a great (your words, not mine) album because then they can't release any crap any more.

I'm gonna murder you Marcel!
Everything they've released with the exception of Cold Lake and Vanity/Nemesis is amazing. And that includes Hellhammer too!

Actually a part of me is glad, because if they split up, they do so after releasing a great (imo) album, the other part of me is disappointed because I didn't get the chance to see them live.

I agree! Perhaps start a new band,whatever... Just leave the name Celtic Frost intact!

Tom Gabriel Fischer has posted the following message on his official blog:

"It was not my departure from CELTIC FROST which caused the group's inexorable demise. It was the group's inexorable demise which caused my departure.

"CELTIC FROST's approach was unlike any other I have encountered in my many years in the music industry. Regardless of whether one revered or detested CELTIC FROST, this was a deeply unique group. And while there were unquestionably some who did detest CELTIC FROST, it seemed impossible for them to manifest any criticism beyond petty personal attacks or preposterous conjecture typically rooted in their own distorted perception rather than in the group's actual reality. In fact, this might also be true for some of us within the group itself.

"In its second incarnation, CELTIC FROST was far more unassailable than in its first. It could only be destroyed from within. And this, we accomplished to perfection.

"Leaving the project which was the focus of most of my existence, the group that was the content of my life, was not a decision I took hastily or lightly. On the contrary, it was, and still is, extremely difficult and almost unbearably painful. My departure was a consequence of the personal environment prevailing within the group for some five years, and particularly since CELTIC FROST stepped back into the limelight in May 2006. I would not have taken this step if there had been a glimpse of another option. But there wasn't; the damage incurred had finally become irreversible.

"For the past seven and a half years, CELTIC FROST was for the second time synonymous with my life, my energy, my passion, my vision, and my creativity. So much so, that I was frequently berated by those around me for the intensity of my identification with the band. But CELTIC FROST was, of course, not just art and creativity ? it was also an assemblage of very distinctive and extremely volatile human characters. This was the group's very propellant and, ultimately, its ruin. The thought that this great, extraordinary band no longer exists, that it had to disintegrate due to what in effect constituted human complacency, is utterly insufferable.

"It is also completely unbefitting the unique legacy of CELTIC FROST.

"It has become simply impossible to reply to the uncounted phone calls and mails I have received since the news of my departure broke. To learn that CELTIC FROST has come to mean so much to so many is extremely moving. At the same time, it is also dreadful to know how disappointed all those are who loved the band. This also includes our friends and mentors, some of whom tried to intervene together with me until the last minute (and, in some cases, past it) to prevent the worst from happening. Carmen and HR Giger, for example, Ravn of 1349, or the group's brilliant manager, Antje Lange.

"Moreover, it is nearly impossible to justify the course of events in the face of those who worked so hard to enable the disinterment and second rise of CELTIC FROST: our live guitarists V Santura and Anders Odden, our webmasters, our crew, and the staff of our concert agency, Twisted Talent, and of our record company partners, Century Media.

"I am attempting to collect my thoughts right now, which is still incredibly difficult. Artistically, I did not want to leave CELTIC FROST at all; I have never been happier with the music and creativity in the band. I saw 'Monotheist' as only the first of hopefully several distinctive albums by this group. I thus plan on continuing exactly in the artistic vein of CELTIC FROST. I had very a distinct vision of what the next two CELTIC FROST albums might consist of, and I intend to eventually fulfill this vision and complete these albums with a new group. I would also like to continue touring and perform the music I have written in CELTIC FROST over the years for audiences all across the globe.

"In closing, at long last, I am also deeply indebted to my friend Wrath of AVERSE SEFIRA for his forceful epitaph in honor of CELTIC FROST, which stands representatively for the many comments I have received."

i think Tom G. Warrior left Celtic Frost to prep for a new album. Peter Steele of Type O Negative faked his own death for his "Dead Again" album. i think thats what its called. something like that. this might either be an epic waste of time, an epic comeback that ends fabulously, or Tom G. Warrior actually LEFT. LOL.

Morbid Tales,To Mega Therion,Emperor's Return,Tragic Serenades and Into the Pandemonium are the only true CF albums to me. WTF were they thinking on Cold Lake and Vanity/Nemesis. Mono shouldn't have had the CF tag either. Good album for another name but gone was the brutality and rawness which started to show with Into the Pandemonium. I saw CF in New Orleans last year and the only highlights were the older songs. The Mono stuff bored the shit out of me. If Tom wants to do that kind of stuff he has been around long enough to carry on without having to ride the CF name any longer. Stop dragging the name through the mud with the constant change in musical directions.

If any of you had the hope to see Celtic Frost reunited just read this.

I thought Celtic Frost was together all this time since Monotheist...when did they break up again after that album?
