Australian death metal titans ABRAMELIN are proud to announce their upcoming fourth album Sins of the Father, due out October 4 via Hammerheart Records.
LISTEN TO THE BAND’S FIRST SINGLE HERE
Arguably the pioneers of the Australian death metal scene, ABRAMELIN originally formed in 1988 under the name Acheron, later rebranding to avoid confusion with their American counterparts. Over 36 years later, the band remains a formidable force, delivering a relentless blend of brutal and thrashy death metal that is as ferocious as ever.
Sins of the Father was mixed and mastered by the band’s own Joe Haley at Crawlspace Productions (Werewolves, Psycroptic) and features 10 tracks of vilest form of death metal.
Vocalist Simon Dower shares his thoughts: “We chose ‘Conflagration of the Dreamers’ as the first single because it not only rips, but also sets the tone for what’s to come. Lyrically, it’s a sequel to ‘Flesh Furnace’ from our Deadspeak album (2000), continuing the story of a murderous pyromaniac who incinerates his victims as they sleep—hence the track's title.”
The bulk of Sins of the Father was composed by Matt Wilcock (Werewolves, ex-Akercocke), with drumming from the legendary David Haley (Psycroptic). Longtime member Rob Mollica (Earth, Butterfly) also contributes with the track ‘Last Rite,’ adding a fresh dynamic to the album’s sonic landscape.
Lyrically, Dower continues to delve into the grotesque and horrific, drawing from over 40 years of horror inspiration. As with 2020’s Never Enough Snuff, the lyrics are deeply rooted in splatter punk and extreme horror literature, making this album a truly unsettling experience for those who dare to listen.
