Biography:
While most extreme bands depend on harsh imagery and gruesome subject matter to obtain some sort of shock value, Belgium's ABORTED relies more on their musicianship to make jaws drop. Far more sophisticated than your average melodic/gore-grind outfit, the band has been refining their carnal artistry for the past decade. Sickeningly infectious guitar hooks, inhuman drumming, devastating bottom end and the massive roar of Svencho De Caluwé have put the band at the top of many fan and critic lists of extreme metal acts. Now, much as Goremageddon (2003) was a giant leap forward from Engineering the Dead (2001), The Archaic Abattoir sees the band taking their special brand of aural violence to the next level.
