Mythological occult metal legends, Absu are well known for their bombastic clandestine take at both the thrash and black metal genre, rife with their thought provoking lyrics and intense musicianship. This third release builds on their already dense lore and esoteric lyrics and takes off exactly where the Sun of Tiphareth left off. Featuring a similar mix and structure style to the album, it plays as almost a sister release to the previous record. Swirling and thrashing guitars are paired relentlessly with Proscriptors drumming and vocals to craft some of the most unique sounding takes on both the black and thrash metal genres to date. Often heralded as their opus, The Third Storm of Cythrául carved it’s name, peerlessly into the history books.
