new edition on OUT OF SEASON!

Teitanblood returns to claim underground metal’s most lawless frontier. “From the Visceral Abyss” is an all-engulfing tide of unfettered, raging chaos – where black and death metal collapse into a maelstrom of destruction. Its force is neither random nor aimless but guided by an instinct sharpened over decades.

This is Teitanblood at their most unhinged, yet wholly assured in execution. Dissonance and precision collide in monstrous, writhing riffs, underpinned by percussive violence that shifts between merciless blasting and dirge-like weight. Layer upon layer of bile-drenched vocals coil through the cacophony, forging a suffocating atmosphere of grotesque grandeur.

As ever, the album is steeped in the restless spirit of the late Finnish artist Timo Ketola, who stood as both interpreter and architect of Teitanblood’s visual world. Ketola’s oracular visions provided the scripture from which these lyrics emerged – his legacy not merely preserved but carried forth beyond the grave. The tradition of transmuting sound into imagery continues, with Dávid Glomba filling the booklet’s pages with a dense tapestry of illustrations, sigils, and hand-scribed invocations.

2024 Reissue in digipak with completely reworked booklet!

2004, like the early new millenium years, was in the middle of the
Black Metal crossroad between going back to the primordial grim roots
and moving to uncharted and unsurveyed territories.
This is where Absentia Lunae moved their first steps, a wolf pack, as
lyrical mastermind explained on this re-edtion booklet retrospective,
angered by the cowardly pacified western society where they grew up.
This juvenile fuel was obviously not merely drawn to shape their
intense form of brutal Black Metal but showing already some gleams of
unique form of dramatic and avantgardish impetus.

In an era where magazines and fanzines where still the most
influential form of knowledge the demo soon became a recurring
reference for the demo sections. Stuza Records from Ukraine ( the same
one released bands like Aosoth, Astrofaes, Sort Vokter…) released
the same on tape and some months later band printed the same on a 500
copies pro-cd, which soon became sold out.

Absentia Lunae’s most praised efforts like “In Umbrarum Imperii
Gloria” & “Historia Nobis Assentietur” always share the podium with
“Marching Upon Forgotten Ashes” on fan’s feelings.

It has been the band’s decision to maintain the feeling of the
original source , some quotes from the key points of the lyrics have
been added and an extensive retrospective from the singer Ildanach
about whole album concept and track by track details on core concept
and band birth.

This random colour mix allows you to have completely unique records within one order (each piece is one of a kind and the result is unpredictable, some copies coming with the predominance of one colour and others – totally different).
You can be sure the result will be similar to marble or smoked vinyl, but the rest is a mystery!
