Drummer/Vocalist Proscriptor from the mythological occult metal outfit ABSU has issued the following statement:
“After 5 years of silence, I am pleased to announce the new line-up of ABSU. It was a difficult task to replace both Shaftiel and Equitant after being together for nearly 11 years, but now is the time to carry on. Here is the new reorganization of the band:
Proscriptor McGovern - Percussives, Mellotron, Voices & Lyrical Magick
Vastator Terrarum - Guitars, Bass Guitar, Analog Synthesizers & Backing Voices
Aethyris MacKay - Guitars, Bass Guitar, Analog Synthesizers & Backing Voices
“We have begun composing and arranging the material for what will be known as the self-titled album, simply called Absu. In 2002, 4 out of 16 tracks were written; 2 of them we’re keeping while the other 2 we’re abandoning. We will begin recording in the latter part of autumn 2007 or early 2008 anticipating a release before June 2008 for Osmose Productions/The End Records.”
