PURITY THROUGH FIRE is proud to present ORGREL's highly anticipated second album, The Abyssal Terror, on CD and vinyl LP formats.
The Beast wants to be fed.
From a lake of boiling blood emerges a forbidden invocation.
From the Abyss to the End.
From the Demon to the Abyss.
From Nothingness to the Void.
No forgiveness. No mercy. No return.
The Beast must be fed.
Since the arrival of their debut album, Red Dragon's Invocation, in 2021 and the EP The Oath of the Black Wolf a year later, ORGREL have indeed been feeding the Beast. A band literally out of time, the Italian power-trio hailed the ancient days of black metal - the days too often forgotten, in the late '90s, when labels like Solistitium, Sombre, and Drakkar began releasing obsidian gems during the genre's post-sensationalism fallout. Rich with righteous fury and triumph alike, both records synthesized mystical splendor and dizzying delirium into a joint treatise on those too-often-forgotten days, engrossing to the very last notes: reverence, not regression.
And now, ORGREL return to feed that Beast once again, making a bloodpact with the PURITY THROUGH FIRE stronghold for their third album. Truly titled, The Abyssal Terror is both a summation and an extension of the Italians' already-considerable strengths. With an acutely vintage flat-yet-full production, ORGREL here rip forth with one bloodlusting anthem after another, stacking invigorating melodicism atop impassioned surge - one where the listener fully feels every last riff, rhythm, and holler deep in their bones. If anything, the preceding EP signaled a slight shift toward dirtier and perhaps less-mystical territory, but The Abyssal Terror rights the balance with gruffer, fuller-throated vocals and, at times, a subtle suggestion of epic traditional metal; in an abstracted sense, the latter could be attributed to a deeper dive into black metal's oldest roots. Either way, ORGREL once again display an effortless mastery of songwriting and execution, a symbiosis of medieval machismo and feral wanderlust: The Beast shall be fed by The Abyssal Terror!
