The blackened death metal scene has just grown darker. Enigmatic collective ABSCHWÖRZUNGE has officially signed with Agonia Records, setting the stage for their first full-length album following the 2024 EP Whorl.
Hailing from a shadowy corner of the extreme music world, ABSCHWÖRZUNGE fuses “millennium-era death metal architecture, radical and openly hostile black metal principles, and a sombre strain of industrial sound design.” The project eschews theatrics, personas, or mythology—focusing instead on structural precision, controlled chaos, and the stark observation of human degradation and the ruin of meaning.
The band’s debut EP, Whorl, released via The Ajna Offensive and I, Voidhanger Records, established a framework of meticulously calculated intensity—a blueprint that hints at the relentless depth fans can expect from the forthcoming album. Agonia Records’ announcement confirms that the group’s full-length effort is already in development, promising to expand this dark, introspective universe of sound.
For fans of extreme metal who thrive on uncompromising, boundary-pushing music, ABSCHWÖRZUNGE’s work is a rare combination of precision, hostility, and industrial atmosphere. In other words: this isn’t just music; it’s an experience.
