Formed from current and former members of Malevolence, Skuldom, Winter Deluge and Anno Domini Mortis, New Zealand’s Abyssic Grave announced themselves with a promising demo and a handful of incendiary live shows before abruptly ending when guitarist and creative force Destragus retired from music.
Before disbanding they recorded debut album Born of the Wilderness, a monumental slab of ice cold black metal grimness.
Gutter Prince Cabal is honoured to release this stillborn monument to darkness and the mist-shrouded wilderness. As is the cycle of nature, the death of the old makes way for the new and so it is that from the ashes of Abyssic Grave, Gravgöt emerges….
