Rapturous Euphoria  
[Music and Lyrics by Malcolm Pugh]

I scorn all virgin and tattered flesh
disgusting victims of their own lies 
I have belayed my deepest affection 
with utmost vengeance I seek the end of 
breath giving life

overwhelmed with no self control
I hunt and wait to strike

In my domain I dwell, I am master
misplaced in hell for the sake of reaching heaven
savoring this state of nostalgia
which cannot 
will not
does not exist

cold flesh
pale elegant and emaciated
never adequate for life

lust of your death
enthralled by the taste of hypnotic tragedy 
here I dream lucid of the quietus of you 
and all that you hold dear

[solo]

cleansed of my conscience
while spilling the blood within you
anxiously awaiting the rapturous euphoria 
I shall endure

there will never be forgiveness within my dominion 
misplaced in hell for the sake of reaching heaven
savoring this state of nostalgia
which cannot 
will not
does not exist

lust of your death
enthralled by the taste of hypnotic tragedy 
here I dream lucid of the quietus of you 
and all that you hold so dear

cleansed of my conscience
while spilling the blood within you
anxiously awaiting the rapturous euphoria 
I shall endure

Rapturous Euphoria

Deathgasm Records will proudly release the mighty eleventh official studio full-length from long-running Kentucky-based death metal legion, ABOMINANT, in late July, this week issuing the album’s artwork, track listing, preorders, and more.

For twenty-three years, ABOMINANT has done their best to write individual songs rather than repeating the same style, in the process simultaneously enticing or alienating much of the metal underground, causing them to maintain a purely cult status. With no interest in trends or genres; they have always carved their own path through the metal underworld, recognizing the appeal of individuality and attempting to separate themselves from getting lost in the sea of brutality. The band’s relentless eleventh album, Napalm Reign was recorded, mixed, and mastered by Scott Briggs and ABOMINANT inside Velocity Studios during the Winter months of 2015/16. Napalm Reign spews forth eleven brand new aural assaults and showcases the band executing their subterranean thrash-tinged blackened death with the passion and vehemence of true scene veterans.

Napalm Reign will be unleashed by ABOMINANT’s cohorts at Deathgasm Records on July 29th.

ABOMINANT was formed in 1993 in Elizabethtown, Kentucky, following the demise of several local death metal acts. Guitarist Tim Ball and bassist Mike May from Sarcoma joined forces with guitarist Buck Wiedeman and drummer Craig Netto from Effigy to start a new project with darker, heavier roots than their previous outfits. In early 1994 they released their Never Truly Dead demo, and soon after, Wiedeman left to join the Air Force. Acquiring Mike Barnes from Louisville’s Cataclysm on vocals, they released another demo in late 1994 which led to a union with Wild Rags Records. Wild Rags released ABOMINANT’s debut, Unspeakable Horrors, in 1996. Wild Rags also opted to issue the Never Truly Dead demo on MCD format. The band released two more full-lengths through  Wild Rags — 1997’s In Darkness Embrace and 1999’s The Way After — before the label’s demise.

While in between records and labels, Wiedeman returned to the fold, increasing the band to a five-piece and doubling the material needed for a new record. ABOMINANT soon connected with Deathgasm Records for the release of 2000’s Ungodly which garnered the most success and positive reviews for the band yet. After 2002’s Upon Black Horizons, Deathgasm also officially repressed The Way After. Following the band’s 2004 full-length Conquest, ABOMINANT parted ways with its original drummer and brought in Jim Higgins who had been in multiple local bands, including Cataclysm with Mike Barnes, which helped usher in a more black metal influence and also reinvigorated the band. Not long after, they recorded 2006’s Triumph Of The Kill, however upon its release, Wiedeman decided to bow out of the band for a second time.

The quartet released 2008’s Warblast and 2010’s Where Demons Dwell with Deathgasm before opting to self-release an MCD with two covers and two new songs for 2012’s Battlescarred. By 2013, the label released the band’s most fully-realized album yet, with Onward To Annihilation. Now, in 2016 ABOMINANT and Deathgasm Records are proud to present the band’s eleventh full-length album, Napalm Reign, celebrating their twenty-third year as a band. Truly fans of metal themselves, and the epitome of a brotherhood, ABOMINANT hopes all fans of death metal will enjoy our new record and possibly dive into their extensive back catalog.

01 - No Peace

Track 15 of Storaged Melodies, an unreleased demo album

[Verse 1]
TIME IS ALWAYS NOW HERE FOREVER
TIME IS ALWAYS NOW GONE NEVER
GOD IS NOW THE RULER OF THE PRESENT
HIS SON A LESSON BORN OF A PEASANT
HERE, NOW, FOREVER
HAPPINESS ENDS AT THE END OF A BEAUTIFUL TUNNEL
NOW, FOREVER

[Verse 2]
RUN RUN RUN AWAY, TO A LAND FAR AWAY
WHERE THE HILLS ARE GREEN AND THE WATER IS GRAY
MARIA RAN WITH PASSION NOT SEEN IN WOMEN
THANKS TO THE BIG LIFE AND HER FORCEFUL
DADDY, NO LONGER THE MAN, NO MATTER
DUE IS HER FREEDOM FOR LONELINESS WITH THE DOLLAR
NO LONGER THE MAN, NO MATTER

[Bridge]
I'VE BEEN POISONED BY GOD
THE DEVIL OF MONEY
I WILL NEVER MARRY, UNTIL I'M READY
TO BE THE PERFECT MAN
MOMMY I LOVE YOU

[Outro]
