Abhorrot are a band from Austria that plays an old school mixture of black and death metal and this is a review of their 2020 album "Abysmal Echoes" which was released by Morbid Chapel Records.
Dark, heavy and melodic riffing starts off the album while the music is also very heavily rooted in the 90's era. When the music speeds up a great amount of blast beats can also be heard along with the vocals being mostly bestial growls and the music also adds in a great amount of death metal elements.
Throughout the recording you can also hear a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts while the solos and leads also stick to an old school style. Blackened screams are also utilized at times along with the tremolo picking also giving the songs more of a raw feeling and touches of doom/death metal can also be heard in the slower sections of the music and the whole album also sticks to a heavier direction and a couple of tracks are also long and epic in length.
Abhorrot plays a musical style that goes back to the early 90's era of black and death metal. The production sounds very raw and old school while the lyrics cover ancient darkness and death themes.
In my opinion Abhorrot are a very great sounding old school mixture of black and death metal and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "The Kingdom Of Death" "Dead Void Labyrinth" and "Litanies Of Crawling Chaos". 8 out of 10.
