This is one of 2024's sleeper releases. I seldom tread the death metal path these days but it's good to know Blood Incantation is out there keeping the flame alive. Given the band's definite illegible logo, it's all about the music, a make / break episode, really. With Absolute Elsewhere, it's a definite make. Unlike other attention-craving death metal bands, the content here are rather introverted. There were episodes where bits of King Crimson & Yes come to mind. I'm hinting at some psychedelic / prog content that were tastefully done, nothing overwhelming, just hinting at the fact that the minds behind this release did a fair amount of thinking instead of playing fast for the genre's commitment sake. Oh, these guys are big BC Rich fans.
