Monument (Scale the Summit album)

Monument is the debut studio album by American instrumental progressive metal band Scale the Summit. It was self-released on July 10, 2007, and funded by the band members themselves.[1][2][3] Chris Letchford described the songs as "a lot more up tempo and in my opinion less organized, due to the lack of writing experience," and the production process as "being sub-par in comparison to the band's standards owing to being self-funded."[4]
