Description
Across two monumental compositions and approximately 45 minutes, 'Absolute Elsewhere' pushes progressive death metal into unfamiliar territory. The Denver quartet Blood Incantation moves seamlessly between crushing riffs, cosmic synthesizers and extended passages inspired by 1970s progressive and electronic music. Brutality and atmosphere coexist throughout, with sudden transitions opening portals between the technical force of Morbid Angel and the exploratory soundworlds associated with Tangerine Dream.
Following the progressive death metal precision of 'Hidden History of the Human Race' and the entirely synthesizer-based excursions of 'Timewave Zero', the album brings both sides of Blood Incantation together. "The Stargate" and "The Message" unfold as multi-part suites, shifting from labyrinthine guitar work and guttural vocals to psychedelic textures, spacious electronics and moments of luminous calm. Tangerine Dream’s Thorsten Quaesching contributes to "The Stargate [Tablet II]", strengthening the connection to Berlin School electronics without diminishing the record’s extreme-metal foundation. Named after the 1970s progressive collective Absolute Elsewhere, the album presents Blood Incantation at their most ambitious, creating an expansive work that treats death metal as a starting point rather than a boundary.
