A Of Absu, The Self-Titled Album Of One Of The Best Music Artists
For all the music lovers out there! Today we are going to have a of the album Absu, by the music artist Absu. This album was released in 2009, and it is considered one of the best works of Absu. In this blog, we will cover a brief history of the artist, the music genre of the album, the best songs of the album, the most innovative parts, and a critic of the album.
Absu is an amazing American extreme metal band formed in Texas in 1989. The band originally consisted of three members, namely Proscriptor McGovern, Shaftiel, and Equitant Ifernain. This band is well-known for composing epic and classical black metal music. Proscriptor McGovern, the drummer, is the only original member left in the band, as other members have come and gone.
When it comes to the music genre of the album Absu, it is labelled as black/thrash metal, which is a mix of black metal and thrash metal. This genre is defined as a form of aggressive, fast-paced music with strong guitar riffs and heavy drumming. Absu's sound is unique, as they blend classical melodies and intense drumming with low growling vocals.
The best songs on the album Absu are: Night Fire Canonization, 13 Globes, and Magic(k) Square Cipher. Night Fire Canonization begins with an infectious beat and rapidly speeding guitar work. 13 Globes boasts a catchy riff that is followed by a mix of mid-tempo and damaging fast drumming. Magic(k) Square Cipher has a great atmospheric, ambient sound that sets the pace for the rest of the album.
The most innovative part of the album is the incorporation of Chthonic mythology and other ancient lore. Absu has always been known for incorporating mythology and folklore into their music, and Absu takes that a step further. They even went so far as to invent a new language for the lyrical content of the album. This unique and innovative approach to storytelling through music is what sets Absu apart from other metal bands.
If I have to provide criticism for the album, it would be that it lacks cohesiveness. Though the songs are great individually, they don't always flow together smoothly. This makes it hard, at times, to feel the emotions that they are trying to convey.
To wrap it up, Absu by Absu is an incredible album that gives the listener a unique experience of black/thrash metal with classical melodies and storytelling through mythology. Whether you're a fan of metal music or not, this album is worth listening to for its creativity and originality. The album is not perfect, but it has its best moments that make it a real gem of the metal repertoire. So, grab your headphones, sit back, and let the music take you on a journey into the ancient world of mythology and folklore.
