Primeiramente formado como “Dolmen” em 1989 por Shaftiel (vocais/guitarra/baixo) e Equitant Infernain (guitarra solo/baixo), a banda de black metal/death metal Absu vem do berço menos provável do extreme metal: Dallas, Texas. Em 1991, a mudança de nome para Absu (emprestado de crenças mesopotâmicas antigas) entrou em vigor, duas demos, “Immortal Sorcery” e “Return Of The Ancients” estavan na manga, e a independente Gothic Records estava mostrando interesse no grupo auto-proclamado de “mythological occult metal”. O baterista/vocalista Proscriptor (também conhecido como Russ R. Givens) juntou-se à banda pouco após o lançamento do EP “The Temples Of Offal”, no ano seguinte, e suas letras e composição acadêmicas começaram a dominar a banda, começando com a estréia full-lenght de 1993, “Barathrum: V.I.T.R.I.O.L.”. O Absu então assinou com a famosa Osmose Productions, da França, que lançou seus trabalhos subseqüentes, “Sun Of Tiphareth” (1995), “… and Shineth Unto the Cold Cometh” (EP, de 1995), “The Third Storm of Cythraul” (1997) e “In the Eyes of Ioldánach” (EP, de 1998). Cada um mostrava estudos cada vez mais elabrados do misticismo obscuro (sumério, gaélico, você decide!), e isso levou a turnês junto a tipos como Impaled Nazarene e Enslaved, ajudando o Absu a esculpir uma posição de grande respeito nos círculos de black metal. O longamente aguardado “Tara”, de 2001, focava nas lendas celtas e obteve ainda maior aclamação, mas foi o último a contar com o antigo membro Equitant.

They played a little over 90 minutes in Plymouth last Thursday, was bloody awesome, they played 'till 1:30am! 4crossed wands was amazing, especially with Proscriptor's crazy mathematical speech beforehand. Very impressive set played, all the bands that night were amazing.

Saw them last night in Dublin. They played: An Involution of Thorns Descent to Acheron Swords and Leather Night Fire Canonisation Apzu The Thrice is Greatest to Ninnigal Never Blow Out the Eastern Candle Highland Tyrant Attack The Coming of War The order might not be the same. They also frequently play Manannan and Four Crossed Wands from time to time, as well as a couple more tracks from the s/t, but they were so fucking beset by technical difficulties (plus a curfew) last night that they didn't have the opportunity (nor the inclination, probably). Fantastic performance in any case.

So they lost the 'absu edge' that was present on the earlier album, but what band hasn't? Doesn't mean the s/t is bad.

TheTrueSeker escreveu:
The words "restrained" and "Absu" shouldn't go together. Absu were defined almost solely by how fucking crazy they were (not just speed, but riffs, vocals, drums, songwriting... the whole package), and when they took out all of the craziness on the new album, they didn't have much left to offer.

Tara kicks the most ass. One of the best black/thrash album I have heard. \m/

'Absu' is great although agree that it is slightly restrained compared with some of their other stuff. Regardless, a year or so ago it didnt look like another Absu album would ever happen - lets hope we dont have to wait aslong again.

Tara is the best...by far.

hughenden escreveu:
The new album is stupidly good. Admittedly some of the wild energy has been restrained, but I think this sounds like they're really finding their niche, and from here on they should be creating some pretty fucking awesome metal if the lineup remains stable. Absu \m/

I was actually surprised by how much the riffing style sounded reminiscent of older Absu. Strangely, and I never thought I'd find myself saying this, it seemed like Proscriptor was the weak link. This is the first and only Absu record where he takes no risks whatsoever, either in vocals or drumming. He was always the driving force in older releases, so it's no surprise that this album should feel limp since he played it safe. Having said that, it's not like the riffs on the s/t are particularly good either. Much of the album feels tepid and lacks longevity, even if it's enjoyable in parts. Definitely not their best, indeed.

Absu's selftitled is definitely not their best. Their previous albums are far better especially Tara, but I wasn't really expecting their '09 release to be mind-blowing anyway. After 10 years and many line-up changes it isn't surprising that it doesn't sound the same, a few songs are alright but I miss the style from The Gold Torques of Ulaid/Tara.
