Review by Tammy Lomax for MPM
Since their formation in 1995, Aborted have respectfully achieved their position within the death metal industry. They have positively manipulated all borders of extreme death metal resulting in zero limitations to their evolving sound, it’s also evidently clear these guys are far from becoming ordinary any time soon.
Last year on March 15th, they released their album ‘‘Vault Of Horrors” via Nuclear Blast, each track playing a tribute to different horror movie classics and Aborted showcased their deep admiration for horror cinema.
There were numerous guest vocalists that contributed towards this unique project which included Ben Duerr, Francesco Paoli, Johnny Ciardullo and many others.
Keeping the momentum going with this album release, the horror enthusiasts kept aside a bonus track, ‘The Pain, Will Be Exquisite’ which they have recently released alongside an eerie visualizer.
In true Aborted style, they thump your insides with an absolute battering and there is no denying we should never expect them to deliver anything less.
I have utter admiration for those deathly savage sounding vocals, they have tons of bite and are seriously brutal, a force never to be reckoned with, they vigorously shake your gut. The track has ample unpredictability regarding the tempos and the guitars add further intensity, you are accurately being thrown from pillar to post and there is zero time to come up for air.
It’s a job well done and tides in perfectly with the rest of the tracks on “Vault Of Horrors”
You can catch Aborted live on their extensive European headline tour ‘Slashing Europe’ in April and May 2025 with guests Crypta, The Zenith Passage & Organectomy.
