ABIOSIS ABSENCE OF LIFE reviews

Specialists/collaborators reviews

siLLy puPPy
Old school death metal at its rawest and closest to the heart. ABIOSIS was formed in Napa, California in 1991 and existed for three years until its demise in 1994. While never really crafting a style of death metal that could break through into the top notches of the genre, this local Bay Area band certainly attracted a cult following during its brief existence.

This compilation basically is the official CD release of the band’s two demos “Abiosis” and “The Killing.” This is no frills as there is no remastering, no bonus tracks and nothing else to add beyond finding the band’s demo material launched into a higher level of archival curiosity.

See my reviews for individual demos for detailed description of the music itself but if you are a stalwart old school metal fan who relishes these demo only bands that never captured the attention of a greater audience then you will find lots to love on these primeval recordings. A great talent indeed but just a little too late to the world of death metal to capture any significant attention since there were so many more creative bands out there.
