Description
The Legend EP debut is heavy and has a blackdeathcore type style to it. I really like Legend alot.
In the Shadow of a Thousand Sun’s is the album that put Abigail Williams on the map. They brought on metal legend James Murphy to produce/mix/master the record. This album goes full symphonic black metal, mixing Dimmu Borgir and Emperor successfully.
In The Absence of Light sees the band working in a continuous direction of the melodic black metal without the obvious influences, but within the well worn style.
Becoming is fully self produced and you can hear it in the stripped down sound. This album tends to move around more from slow to fast songs and has a dirtier black metal sound. Becoming is more atmospheric and doomy than prior recordings as AW keeps there sound fresh.
As a whole this is a very enjoyable and worthwhile addition to any extreme metal fans collection.
