Ready to disrupt your soundscapes, Abysmal Rites, the band that redefines the boundaries of heavy/sludge genre, announces the release of their debut full-length album, "Nihilism Is Realism". This Finland-based power trio has harnessed the potency of bass, drums, and vocals to craft an oppressive atmosphere and crushing attitude into their music. The band offers a taste of what to expect from the full-length album in the form of the title track, now available as a single and accompanied by a music video. It perfectly encapsulates the band's uncompromisingly raw sound and hints at the faster, heavier material that the forthcoming album promises. Born in Tampere, Finland, in early 2022, Abysmal Rites has meticulously crafted their unique sound, which can be described as a primitive yet brutal heavy/sludge aesthetic. For fans of Electric Wizard, Eyehategod, Conan, and Black Cobra, Abysmal Rites is a must-listen. "Nihilism Is Realism" was entirely recorded and mixed by Abysmal Rites themselves, assuring their authentic sound remains untouched. The mastering was expertly handled by Jaakko Viitalähde of Virtalähde Mastering, further elevating the album's quality. |
