█ Sixth album from occult black metallers Absu. █
█ Abzu is part two of a planned trilogy of █
█ recordings from mythological occult metal trio █
█ Absu. Mixed by J.T. Longoria (King █
█ Diamond/Solitude Aeternus), the album follows the █
█ bandÆs popular 2009 self-titled album. Featuring █
█ the original works of Polish artist Zbigniew █
█ Bielak (Watain, Behemoth, Destroyer 666, Vader), █
█ Abzu ushers in a new visual presentation for Absu. █
█ For long-time fans, Abzu throws even more at the █
█ listener on the journey through the albumÆs █
█ blistering selections. Proscriptor notes, "with █
█ this record, we are appending dirtier elements of █
█ psychedelia and fusion. Absu, featuring guitarist █
█ Vis Crom and bassist/vocalist Ezezu with █
█ Proscriptor, amazed audiences earlier this year █
█ performing as special guests to Immortal on their █
█ showcase tour. It was the first stateside viewing █
█ of Absu since their headline tour in 2009. Touring █
█ again will be high priority for the trio and █
█ planning is already in the works for late year and █
█ early 2012. Texas-based Absu came to prominence █
█ with the release of their 1993 debut, Barathrum: █
█ V.I.T.R.I.O.L. Each album saw continual expansion █
█ of the bandÆs now highly regarded artistic vision █
█ and international fanbase. It was with 2001Æs Tara █
█ that the band truly arrived. The album reached top █
█ lists of countless magazines worldwide. Years, █
█ however, would pass before any new material would █
█ be recorded. In late 2007, the band finally █
█ announced their re-awakening. Now teamed with █
█ Candlelight Records, the band took nearly sixteen █
█ months writing/recording their sixth album. █
█ █
█ The last track includes these parts: █
█ █
█ a. E-A █
█ b. A Myriad of Portals █
█ c. Third Tablet █
█ d. Warren of Imhullu █
█ e. The Waters - The Denizens █
█ f. E-A (Reprise) █
