Reference: rateyourmusic.com/release/album/semen_across_lips/parabstruse/

Originally released in June 2007 digitally and through the conventions of MySpace. Somewhat passed around blogspots, soulseek, and partially through YouTube over the years and now dug up and uploaded to Bandcamp for the first time.

I'll preface that my death metal project Sallow Moth (sallowmoth.bandcamp.com) is essentially what I wanted this project to eventually become but I did not possess nearly as much production knowledge back then nor the scope of continuing this one in the long haul; I was just tinkering around with free software, cheap gear, and rudimentary drum programming/samples with a lot of ambition and drive to just create.

In retrospect, 'Parabstruse' is incredibly RAW in execution yet the out-of-the-box ideas were always the backbone of this album with the intent to fuse many different influences. My initial ambition to have Post-Rock, Progressive Death Metal, Melodic Death Metal, Black Metal, Doom, and Cybergrind strangely sewn together.

Enjoy the time capsule.

Amazing atmospheric progressive black metal with some doom vibes. Illusions In The Wake is emotional with some haunting melodies. An outstanding debut album! Highly recommended! Sælzer Bub
