YE GO TO THE ABSU!
ABSU - ABSU
Wow, I was in college 8 years ago when their last album was released! The wait was damn well worth it though, and like fine wine, Absu gets better with age, something only so few bands can remotely brag about. More of the same esoteric and occult worship that certainly only a handful of "with it" individuals would understand accompanies their usual killer brand of fast blackthrash with some keyboards-keyboards here and some acoustic-acoustic there. Most notable is that this is the first release with long-timers Equitant and Shaftiel contributing full-time yet they still did pitch in with songwriting and musical arrangements. And their replacements do a damn fine job of keeping the spirits of things. If you've gone down the Absu road before, all of your expectation will be both met and surpassed. Never fear and never doubt, for Absu shall never sellout! (FA)
