Abraham released a new single and video today, titled “Blood Moon, New Alliance”. That’s taken from their new album, Débris de Mondes Perdus, which is out on February 25th through Pelagic Records, which you can purchase here.
In case you somehow weren’t aware, Abysmal Dawn is releasing a new EP on Friday titled Nightmare Frontier, which will be out through Season of Mist. Better still, you can stream the album in full right now… just in case you can’t wait a couple extra days.
Absent In Body, a project featuring current and former member of Amenra, Neurosis, and Sepultura, have announced their debut album… something we should all be excited about.
