Marcel Chirnoagă is a renowned Romanian graphic artist, author of countless engravings and drawings, including the cycle "Apocalypse", famous in the late 20th century. The themes approached are infused with a strong mythological influence. "Inevitable Monsters" includes a series of engravings depicting zoomorphic beings from Chirnoagă's universe, captured in various erotic and apocalyptic stances. The wide world of Chirnoagă allows itself to be discovered in the tiny details one can find in each of the engravings of the album, where monsters seem to be true embodiments of earthly wraths.
