France's Abduction has returned with a new recording which shows the music going for an atmospheric, progressive and melancholic form of black metal and this is a review of their 2023 album "Toutes Blessent , la Dernière Tue" which will be released in December as a joint effort between Finisterian Death End and Frozen Records.
A very fast and raw sound starts off the album along with a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats. A great portion of the tracks are also very long and epic in length while the vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams along with some clean singing also being utilized at times.
All of the musical instruments on the recording also have a very powerful sound to them while the clean guitars also take the music into more of a progressive direction when t hey are utilized. Throughout the album you can also hear a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts and the solos and leads are also done in a very melodic style.
At times the music also gets very atmospheric sounding along with one song also adding in a brief use of spoken word parts. as well as some of the guitar leads also bringing in touches of post metal, stringed instruments can also be heard briefly and the album closes with a Mylene Farmer cover. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics are written in their native tongue and cover historical French figures, social troubles and contemporary issues.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Abduction and if you are a fan of atmospheric, progressive and melancholic black metal, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Toutes Blessent , la Dernière Tue" "Les Heures Impatientes" "Carnets sur Récifs" and "Contre les Fers du Ciel". 8 out of 10.
