Texas (USA) based mythological occult metal act Proscriptor McGovern's Apsû, which constitutes a new incarnation and direct continuation of Absu's legacy, is streaming its self-titled debut album, in advance of its 26 November release on Agonia Records. You can listen to the entire album below.
Touted as one of the most important bands in the history of American black metal, Absu was dissolved by drummer/vocalist Proscriptor McGovern (Russ R. Givens) on the 27 of January 2020, after 30 years of existence. Since the band's last, unreleased album was to be penned as Apsû, McGovern fused the title with his name to form this new group, Proscriptor McGovern's Apsû.
When asked about the album's final outcome, McGovern stated the following: "Having the opportunity to assemble these band members, in the development of this album, was a remarkable honour and I strongly feel this album captures the band's true, yet frenzied potential." McGovern, who also produced and co-engineered the album, added: "I specifically appointed these three to augment and heighten the overall sound portrait of these recordings, hoping that our emphasis on 'mythological occult metal,' coupled with progressive and psychedelic elements, clutches the listener's momentum. Most importantly, I highly commend Agonia Records for migrating our musical and arcane foresight onto the next level." Link
