Product Information

Brighton / London based death metal quintet Abhorrent Decimation release their sophomore album and Prosthetic debut »The Pardoner«. A masterclass in dynamic, cutting edge modern death metal for appreciators of Fit For An Autopsy, The Black Dahlia Murder and Thy Art Is Murder. Sonically, the band makes considerable progression on the foundations of their sound laid out by previous releases. »The Pardoner« sees the band shave away some of their more traditional influences as a fresh writing force further develops on their skill of creating hard hitting, modern, memorable hooks, now set within obsessively considered composition.

The integral force behind the process, David Archer comments »We've really tried both with the production as well as with the musical content to push ourselves and make something that we are all proud of. We wanted to create an album that was melodic, aggressive, interesting and a little more modern than our previous releases. We controlled the entire sonic process ourselves which really helped us to be able to sculpt the sound into exactly what we had in our heads. We have all put a huge amount of time and care into this record and sincerely hope that it is apparent in the way the final product sounds.«

Conceptually, the album is an in depth exploration into English poet Geoffrey Chaucer's most depraved, deceitful character from »The Canterbury Tales«, »The Pardoner« and his tale. The Pardoner is a religious fraud. A hypocrite, who preaches against the love of greed. Yet, whose own love of wealth enabled him to profit on the sins of others. He claimed to work on behalf of the clergy, selling spiritual forgiveness for ones sins in the form of his pardons.

The album artwork was produced by German illustrator Karmazid, based on a visual concept by vocalist Ashley Scott. »What he produced captures the darkness of the story and this character perfectly. The Pardoner looks just as depraved and soulless as I imagined him«.
