Absu left it to the twilight of 2008 to manifest a come-back album (self-tittled + it took them 8 years to reappear, what a wait...) which is essential, to say the least. Despite a marked line-up change (Proscriptor being the sole survivor of the original outfit) the superb musicianship is in tact. The technicality of the instrument execution here is very high standard, the guitars are absolutely commanding. If you were wondering why Proscriptor's drum technicalities are so revered, this is another proof to doubters. Black metal devotees do not look to the USA for some guiding light in terms of the genre's musicalities but Absu is definitely a beacon in dark waters. A great relase.
