“I I“, the aptly-titled and comprehensively majestic second album from BLOOD ABSCISSION, fortifies the veiled project as a major new player in the increasingly overcrowded field of contemporary Black Metal. A week before official release, the mysterious entity has teamed up with Black Metal Promotion to unveil the full album stream. Listen here:
While the sense of perpetual forward motion and cascades of opulent melodies from outstanding 2023 debut “I” remain, the band here raise the bar: combining surges of raw intensity with stretches of otherworldly calm, all enveloped by tighter songwriting that hits with greater emotional force. Veiled in enigma and incorporating a Brutalist visual identity, BLOOD ABSCISSION‘s “I I” is a breathtakingly powerful and visionary journey through epic, transcendent Black Metal.
“I I” is set for an April 11th release on CD and vinyl – including an exclusive DMP vinyl edition – and will be accompanied by band merchandise. Having never before received a physical release, the band’s essential debut “I” will simultaneously be issued in the same formats. Vinyl and CD bundle options for both albums are available. Listen here to the full stream of “I” via Bandcamp!
Pre-orders for both records and all related merchandise are possible via the label’s EU, US, and Bandcamp stores.
Amidst the shroud of eternal night, where shadows and light dissolve into insignificance, a new soundscape emerges. An aural entity weaving chaos and purity into an ethereal hymn of resilience. BLOOD ABSCISSION‘s namelessness carves melodies of erupting rage and transcendental calm, capturing the collective pain that unites us all.
Each composition is a descent into the abyss of mind, where darkness sears and transforms, where fleeting moments of serenity are born from the fire of suffering. Melodies coil and writhe like serpents in the void, unearthing ancient emotions buried beneath the ever-present silence. Here, the unyielding embrace of mortality gives way to an eternal song – a journey that fractures reality and rebuilds it through the raw power of sound.
Through a haze of nihilism, the music transcends the boundaries of conventional form, speaking a language that defies both reason and tradition. This is a symphony for the lost and the forgotten, where the notes themselves seem to carry the weight of unseen universes. Each sonic texture calls to those who wander unseen and frees them from the chains of reality. Music to unbind the spirit, to navigate twisted paths, and to re-ignite the flame within. United in pain, we step into the abyss – not as mere individuals, but as a collective force seeking meaning within the chaos, finding a voice in the silence between the stars.
