Feat. Zemial/The Sun of Tiphareth 30th Anniversary Set
“”Absu” in Sumerian mythology refers to a subterranean ocean. The band’s in-depth approach, supervised by Proscriptor, draws heavily on occultism and ancient mythologies.
Absu’s releases go by conceptual cycles: the first two albums are based on Sumerian mythology, while The Third Storm of Cythraul, In the Eyes of Ioldanach, and Tara form a trilogy about old Celtic mythology.”
