STARTING YOUR MORNING WITH NEW MUSIC FROM THE ABSENCE IS BETTER THAN STARTING YOUR MORNING WITH COCAINE

We’re getting closer and closer to the Septmeber 14 release of The Absence’s third album, Enemy Unbound (Metal Blade). We’ve now heard the album, and can happily report that it’s really, really good, which should shock no one. Lots of bands try to play this particular style of metal, but most of them fuck it up; The Absence, on the other hand, make it look easy. This is the metal equivalent of a good blowjob: all you have to do is lie back, close your eyes, and enjoy yourself.

Our homies at Metal Underground have now debuted a new track from the album, “Maelstrom.” I don’t really know how to top my BJ metaphor, so I’m just gonna provide another link and instruct you to give the song a listen.

And we’ll keep reminding you about this one in the coming weeks, as it is surely one of September’s strongest releases.
