Today, New Orleans barbarians Abysmal Lord reveal the new track "Antisemen of Ceremonial Pseudochrist." The track is the first to be revealed from the band's highly anticipated third album, Bestiary of Immortal Hunger, which will see release by year's end via Hells Headbangers. Hear Abysmal Lord's "Antisemen of Ceremonial Pseudochrist" in its entirety HERE at Hells Headbangers' official YouTube channel.
Since their grand emergence in 2014 with the Storms of Unholy Black Mass debut EP, New Orleans' Abysmal Lord have vaulted to the forefront of the modern bestial metal scene. Red-eyed and rabid, their primeval surge swallows listeners whole with preternatural ease - or simply (black)grinds them down to dust. Under the auspices of HELLS HEADBANGERS, the band has gone from strength to strength with each new recording, each one a swift 'n' tactical strike on all that is holy and pure. Both 2015's Disciples of the Inferno and 2019's Exaltation of the Infernal Cabal have established Abysmal Lord as a none-more-formidable name in the metal underground, with their shock 'n' awe live prowess proving that such sonic bestiality is best witnessed in the flesh.
Since the release of 2020's Cathedral EP, much has transpired in Abysmal Lord camp. A tumultuous period, drummer Barbaric Slayer exited the band to further pursue a spiritual journey deeper inward. Meanwhile, vocalist/guitarist Nocturnal Damnation and bassist/guitarist Guillotine committed themselves to continuing the path of no return. With no reasonable alternative, Abysmal Lord decided that, for their next full-length, Nocturnal Damnation will handle drumming duties (as was done on the aforementioned Storms of Unholy Black Mass). Maximum effort was expended to ensure that the brutality and chaos of Barbaric Slayer’s tradition was honored and continued.
As such, while retaining their foundational elements, Abysmal Lord’s newest offering bears semblance to South America's most infernal names: the aforementioned early days of Hadez, Sarcofago, and especially Sextrash but also Holocausto, Parabellum, and Reencarnacion. With an even more unsettling style of evil and total darkness, not to mention a plethora of mind-melted solos, Bestiary of Immortal Hunger also slots itself well alongside Mystifier's pivotal first couple albums and early Beherit. Naturally, naysayers will still contend that this unholy racket is still "just" bestial metal or war metal or whatever - and for Abysmal Lord, that's fine, as hailing and giving honor to a certain tradition in metal is part of the essence of this wider subculture. Those who know, know, and they will understand deeper, darker truths with this Bestiary of Immortal Hunger.
Release date, cover, and tracklisting for Bestiary of Immortal Hunger to be revealed shortly.
