Artist: ABORYM
Album: Generator
Year: 2006

A lot has happened with Italian industrial black metal Gods of Aborym since their ‘With No Human Intervention’ release some time ago. Atilla Csihar (Mayhem and more) left the band and has been replaced by Prime Evil (Mysticum). Also Faust (ex-Emperor) replaced the drum machine and so the industrial black metal band became a symphonic black metal machine. Then why review it? Well, because of the reputation Aborym still has, and secondly because the album turned out to be great!

Season of Mist is the accomplice for this release upon mankind, and they did an excellent job again. Aborym may have lost their industrial attitude, but they still remain as obscure as ever! Opening with the infamous quote of Charles Manson ("Believe me, if I started murdering people, there'll be none of you left") they already give the kickoff for the rest of the album. Obscure lyrics, great symphonic parts and some excellent midtempo black metal stuff. Touches of the old Emperor are clearly hearable, as well a bit of the old Mayhem. When the voice of Charles Manson appears in ‘Suffer Catalyst’ again, you are already in a deep trance. This stuff kills, crashes and sacrifices everything on its bloody way. If you want to know how to philosophize with Satan, Generator is your bible!
