Abysmal Dawn, death metal giants from Los Angeles are back with new e.p. with Season of Mist. This new opus contains four songs, two of them being their own, two being covers by In Flames and Candlemass. What I love about this band is how they manage to balance between technical super played death metal, brutality, aggression and melody in many guitar solos, themes and atmospheric parts, making them combination of best parts of European and American schools of death metal. Symphonic, almost orchestral parts are perfect calm in the storm of carnage and groove combined with blast beats. Vocals are brutal growled, but you can understand what is being sung, so that is another plus for this special band. Covers are great, but real value of this e.p. are two songs by Abysmal Dawn, so go get it and give it a spin or two.
