Ex-Faceless Drummer Lyle Cooper Returns with Abhorrent

It’s been a year and a half since Lyle Cooper became the latest member of The Faceless to grow tired of the stench of Michael Keene’s stinky farts. In a statement he released announcing his departure he declared that new music from his other band Abhorrent would be on the way later in the year (2013), and while that obviously didn’t happen it appears as if we’ll finally get to hear it by the end of 2014. Which is great news, because Cooper is way too talented a death metal drummer to be lying by the wayside!

Here’s some footage Abhorrent posted in June of Cooper tracking drums:

And here’s a preview of several songs from the new album Intransigence posted last week, much further along in the process:

Sounds pretty sweet, yeah? The band’s Facebook promises Willowtip will release the new album in “Fall 2014,” so be on the lookout.
