Abruptum - Obscuritatem Advoco Amplectère Me (1993)

Previously on OPIUM HUM:
Abruptum - Vi Sonus Veris Nigrae (1997)

IT, original vocalist for Abruptum, has moved on to the great, black unknown. Here's the album that introduced me to Abruptum's uncompromising vision of ugly, dissonant aural nothingness. Thank you for the unearthly noises, IT. If you have time, please send us emanations from the void.

Two tracks, "Part I" and "Part II"

First, there was darkness
Then came the strangers

Abruptum - Vi Sonus Veris Nigrae Malitiaes (1997)

One long, unsettling, seemingly improvised blackened horrorscape. Thunderous drums, demonic growls, tortured screams, droning feedback. Vi Sonus Veris Nigrae Malitiaes came with a helpful reminder that Abruptum is "the audial essence of pure black evil," and a warning that they "do not take responsibility for any actions taken under the influence of this album."

1. Vi Sonus Veris Nigrae Malitiaes

Ancient chambers of inhuman sorrow
