about

This is the latest album from The Reigning Monarchs, with the production costs being made possible by their fans. This newest effort contains a mix of influences and genre-bending styles from surf-ska punkabilly to gothic modern loungecore. Black Sweater Massacre is the only album of its kind and the only one you'll need... til we decide to make another.
