Abramelin delivers an all-out brutal Death Metal assault on the senses with “Sins of the Father”! Arguably the pioneers of Death Metal in Australia, Abramelin have just completed their 4th full length studio album titled: “Sins of the Father”.
Following on from their very well received 2020 album, “Never Enough Snuff”, “Sins of the Father” is an all-out brutal Death Metal assault on the senses; while lyrically, it continues to push the boundaries of horror and depravity. Originally formed as Acheron in 1988 by vocalist Simon Dower & then guitarist David Abbott, the band changed their name in in the early 90’s.
The majority of the tracks on “Sins” were written by Matt Wilcock (Ackercocke, Werewolves) with all beats from the legendary David Hayley (Psycroptic, Werewolves).
Inspired by 40+ years of horror fiction & film, lyrics by Simon, are a deep exploration into all things grotesque and horrific in nature.
With influences drawn from a variety of splatter punk and extreme horror authors, the lyrics, in usual Abramelin style, are not for the faint of heart. In order to compliment the overall horror, the artwork of “Sins of the Father” is second to none.
99% of Death Metal bands take the approach of using extreme art, but very few choose photography.
With a team of nine people, Abramelin have managed to pull together an album cover that is quite unique, and screams evil in a way that not many other metal covers can. Many months in the making, Abramelin hope that the artwork on “Sins of the Father” captures the attention and imagination of metal and horror fans alike!
