absconder.

This past Saturday Coffinworm played with an incredible death metal band called Absconder from Champaign, IL. I'd been listening to their demo tracks for a few weeks, but the demo did nothing to prepare for the live onslaught that they brought: Straight-forward meat & potatoes death metal in the vein of the godly Cianide. Every song was a goddamn ripper and the band thrashed harder than fuck all. The members are all great guys to boot. Bassist/vocalist Brad used to play in Morgue, who had the distinction of being part of Autopsy's only full U.S. tour back in 1993 with Vital Remains & Incantation. Brad is also in stoner rock band Tummler.

Absconder currently have a 5 song demo and logo t-shirts available. You can reach the band for information on getting either of those at this address: absconder1@hotmail.com. The demo has been uploaded here for free download with permission from the band, apparently. Check out their Facebook page for news on their upcoming split 7" with Anatomia on H.G.P.D. Productions.
