Old school Death Metal in its purest form. Thanks to Transcending Obscurity for this little gem. Found it on Bandcamp Friday. The clean singing part in „Rot of Ages“ is epic - i did not expecting this. Highly recommended for everyone who loves old school Death Metal!
Favorite track: When The Guillotine Falls.

Atavistic HM-2 driven Swedish style death metal is given a sense of refined German death metal structuring and tempered with shimmering melodies, making ABSCESSION's new album 'Rot of Ages' the epitome of immaculately balanced old school death metal music. The music maintains a brisk and punchy crust/punk derived tempo throughout, deftly punctuating it with melodic passages and heart-stopping breakdowns, to make it an immensely engrossing and overall gratifying affair. The interplay between the faster, crunchier sections and the brilliant, emotive melodic streaks is exceptional, and also adds more depth to an otherwise raunchy and abrasive death metal album. Each song has its own identity, marked by highly memorable riffs that are diverse but retain character and sound. Even with a plethora of Swedish death metal sounding releases out there, 'Rot of Ages' manages to hold its own if only because of the strength of its songwriting and encapsulating the best this style of death metal music has to offer, while still sounding fresh and spirited. At once pulverizing and evocative, ABSCESSION have released one of the finest death metal albums in the style this year.

This a death metal supergroup with members of Wombbath, Revel In Flesh and Gorefest, and they've released a potent EP inspired by the classic horror movies which any fan of death metal should love! Abscession
Bizarre play Lovecraftian death metal that's dark, flavourful and steeped in the old school sound while also being eerily atmospheric. This is easily their strongest material till date. Abscession
Underground legends Diskord return with what's being hailed as their best album till date. This is inventive old school death metal that's also technical, dissonant and experimental in its own way! Abscession
