More about this product:

Absu are a funny beast and no mistake, but they're no less impressive for being a bit out of the ordinary. In the simplest of terms, they're a Black Metal band but that doesn't describe the half of their sound in truth. The album opens with the sound of bagpipes, before nearly cracking your skull open with one of the finest blastbeats ever heard, announcing the arrival of the first track proper 'Pillars Of Mercy', a song that contains some double bass drumming so fast, Dave Lombardo would think twice before attempting to play it. Very impressive, and a cracking way to open an extreme Metal album. Absu are in fact from Texas but all the band have Celtic ancestry, which both explains the bagpipes at the start of the album and also supplies them with most of their lyrical subjects. The sound, whilst predominantly Black Metal, also contains a healthy pinch of old-school Thrash Metal such as Nuclear Assault or Destruction, and it sounds great. When they drop the pace a little bit from the frantic beginning, there are some superb old fashioned riffs that are tailor-made for headbanging. If you're a serious Black Metal fan, chances are you'll already own this album. If not, you really should. Also, if you like your classic Thrash Metal and don't mind something a bit heavier and even faster, you're sure to enjoy it as well.
