ABIGOR - Taphonomia Aeternitatis: Gesänge Im Leichenlicht Der Welt (SLIPCASE CD)

In their thirteenth album, "Taphonomia Aeternitatis: Gesänge Im Leichenlicht Der Welt," Austrian black metal stalwarts Abigor present a masterful evolution of their signature style. Departing from the breakneck speed of previous works, the album embraces deliberate pacing, sacrificing velocity for intricate compositions. Unconventional blast beats and a nuanced approach to speed create a weightless, space-like atmosphere. Thematic diversity and a touch of heavy metal infusions redefine their sound. The deliberate clash of heavy metal tendencies, symphonism, and theatricality against a sharp and crisp production challenges listeners, offering a captivating, if divisive, experience. "Taphonomia Aeternitatis: Gesänge Im Leichenlicht Der Welt" stands as a testament to Abigor's avant-garde approach, pushing the boundaries of black metal into uncharted territories.
