The year is 1997, the deviant trinity is made up of Equitant, Proscriptor and Shaftiel and therefore, the recording is called The Third Storm Of Cythrául. Osmose Productions is pleased to revive Absu's third, most blackened thrash record to date. Originally released in 1997, this repressing is exposed as the “2013 Alternate Stereo Mix Edition,” which was remixed by both Proscriptor and J.T. Longoria (King Diamond, Solitude Aeternus, Etc.) to audibly translate the album's production as the band originally intended. Featuring the original cover artwork by Kris Verwimp and gatefold layout with liner notes, one shall lick the blade…whip with wrath…for swords and leather! (Full-color poster included).

500x ultra clear with sea blue marble shade swirl 12" (180g) in a black poly-lined innerbag, poster A2, full-color on 150g art paper, gatefold cover, full-color on 350g, all assembled in a PVC overbag.

Tara, as a dual-album set. Originally released in late May of 2001, it has been a highly celebrated recording and a loyal favorite amongst Absu's followers. Unlike the band's previous two releases, Tara is a concept album that principally deals with the harmony of strife, immortality, puissance and tyranny. It was immediately conceived after their 1998 release of In The Eyes Of Ioldánach when drummer/vocalist Proscriptor's frustration grew with the sinking intelligence in the extreme metal world – it was his calling to fully educate his audience. Therefore, the album features a lexicon (glossary) insert of pensive occult systems and mythological notations – to assist the listener with an enlightened, more comprehensive understanding. As always, Kris Verwimp infuses the gatefold with three sensational illustrations. (Full-color poster included).

Reprint, 500x clear black ice vinyl 2x12" (180g) in black poly-lined innerbags, printed insert on 220g, poster A2, full-color on 150g art paper, gatefold, full-color on 350g, all assembled in a PVC overbag.

 ...And Shineth Unto The Cold Cometh... was the follow-up/companion 7”EP released shortly after Absu's The Sun Of Tiphareth in 1995.
