Four years after the critically acclaimed “Generator”, Italian electro/post black metallers Aborym are back with their fifth album! Set for a November 8th release, the new full-length is entitled “Psychogrotesque” and is made of one story, a single song written four-handedly by the band’s mastermind Fabban and talented new guitarist Hell:IO:Kabbalus.

ABORYM describe the album as a “realistic story about the horrific human aridity and its fragile impotence. A social metaphor, uncomfortable but very current, treated cynically by bassist-singer Fabban through a story set in a mental hospital, which suggests that he used his pen with an absolute commitment and the determination to keep off Aborym from the banality and clichés both ideological-aptitudinal and musical that saturate the extreme metal scene”.

“Psychogrotesque” was recorded, mixed and mastered at Fear No One Studios by Emiliano Natali, with the sound consulting of Marc Urselli (3 Grammy Awards in 2005, mind and founder of Memory Lab as well as sound engineer for artists like John Zorn, Laurie Anderson, Lou Reed, Eric Clapton) at the prestigious Eastside Sound Studios in New York.

The now-established three member line-up (Fabban on vocals, bass, synth; Hell:IO:Kabbalus on guitars and synths; Bard G. Eithun "Faust" on drums) is joined by a number of special guests and friends: Richard K. Szabo of TWZ, an old acquaintance of ABORYM since the days of “With No Human Intervention”; Narchost (MALFEITOR, DEMON'S SHADE, STORMCROW); Pete Michael Kolstad Vegem (guitarist of BLOOD TSUNAMI and MONGO NINJA); Giulio Moschini (guitarist of HOUR OF PENANCE); bassist Emiliano Natali (SHOREBORN); the saxophonist Marcello Balena and Davide Tiso (talented musician and the mind behind EPHEL DUATH and KARYN CRISIS BAND).

The most sensational and unprecedented collaboration on this record, and probably the most sensational in ABORYM’s entire career since 1993, is with KARYN CRISIS. A historical shamanic singer of the legendary combo metal-hardcore crossover CRISIS from New York, as well as pioneer of the female-fronted movement also involved in the past with SIX FEET UNDER, SIGILLUM S, VOIVOD’s vocalist and currently in the KARYN CRISIS BAND together with Davide Tiso, Karyn Crisis returns on the international extreme metal scene with ABORYM, through one of the most insane and violent performances of all time behind the microphone.
