THE ABSENCE - From Your Grave

The Absence is a new band that comes from USA, and this is their first full length album. Besides their origin, the roots of their music come mostly from the Scandinavian Death Metal scene. The band is playing music that is quite aggressive, but full of excellent melodies, harsh Death vocals, enough Thrash influences and riffs, and most of all, enough nice ideas in the songs. The album is full of energy, catchy tunes and plenty of headbanging parts. Fun from the first to the last minute, these guys have created a little diamond for the Swedish scene lovers.
