Absu. The End.

Black metallers Absu have broken up. Longtime drummer and vocalist Proscriptor McGovern (Russ R. Givens), who joined the band a year after their formation in 1992, announced their dissolution.

“After meager deliberation and zero remorse, I have decided to dissolve Absu after three decades of existence. Collectively and universally speaking, this decision is finite due to insoluble circumstances, which has led to this ultimate result. No amount of time, exertion, formula or fashion can alter my verdict.

“Refusing to further comment on the subject, I leave thee with the following enchantment:

“{Vii} For there are bitter waters of Chaos held immobile under (the) ground – And the Sovereigns, who personify them, reign over Opacities and Beyond.

“[II] Beseech these All-Begetters in darkness, outside the circles of time. In Chaos’ sleight of hand, the Deep will respond.”

“{Vi} Never Blow Out The Eastern Candle —

“Proscriptor McGovern (Russ R. Givens)”
