Our Take
Our Take
In a world filled with cookie-cutter death metal bands, ABYTHIC emerge like a breath of fresh air with their latest offering, "Beneath Ancient Portals." This album is a journey through the dark and twisted corridors of the underworld, with each track transporting you to a different realm of sonic brutality.
From the moment the first notes of "Invocation" hit your eardrums, you know you're in for a wild ride. The guitars are like a swarm of angry hornets, buzzing and thrashing in a frenzy of riffs and solos. The vocals are guttural and menacing, like a pack of demons chanting incantations in some long-forgotten language.
But it's not all chaos and aggression on "Beneath Ancient Portals." Tracks like "The Call of the Wampyr" and "Crimson Breath" showcase ABYTHIC's ability to craft melodic, atmospheric passages that evoke a sense of dread and unease. It's like being trapped in a haunted house, with every creak and groan sending shivers down your spine.
Overall, "Beneath Ancient Portals" is a masterclass in modern death metal, combining relentless aggression with haunting melody to create a truly immersive listening experience. ABYTHIC have crafted a dark and twisted sonic landscape that will leave you reeling long after the final notes have faded away. Trust me, you don't want to miss this one.

About the artist
Abythic
ABYTHIC Hailing from the dark depths of Germany, ABYTHIC are not your average death metal band. With a sound as heavy as a ton of bricks and lyrics as dark as a moonless night, this group of metal maestros have been making waves in the underground scene for over a decade. Lead vocalist, Grim Guttural, has a voice that could make even the toughest of metalheads quake in their boots. His guttural growls are enough to send shivers down your spine and make you question your own mortality. Backed by a powerhouse of musicians including Shred Master on guitar, Bass Boss on bass, and Blastbeat King on drums, ABYTHIC deliver a sound that is as solid as a steel beam. Their latest album, "The Call of the Wretched Sea," is a masterpiece of sonic brutality. From the blistering riffs of the opening track to the haunting melodies of the closer, ABYTHIC take you on a journey through the darkest corners of your mind. With nods to classic death metal acts like Morbid Angel and Cannibal Corpse, but with a modern twist all of their own, ABYTHIC are a force to be reckoned with. So, if you're looking for a band that will make your ears bleed and your heart race, look no further than ABYTHIC. These German metalheads are here to stay, and they're not taking any prisoners.
