Last shows for 2023

We got two shows coming up next week. Most likely the last chances to see us live this year (one last show will be announced soon, but that‘s it for 2023). 

03.11. Hannover, Stumpf w/ Ancient Emblem 

04.11. Aachen, Musikbunker w/ Valborg

New review

"The production quality on “Molten Husk” is top-notch, thanks to Jan Oberg’s recording expertise. Each instrument is captured with clarity and precision, allowing the heaviness of the riffs to hit with maximum impact. Abest displays a level of musical maturity and creativity that is truly impressive. They have crafted a comprehensive collection of songs that captivate the listener from start to finish." 

Thanks to thoughtswordsaction.com for the review!

That‘s a wrap

 That‘s a wrap. 2022 has been an amazing year for us. After over two years without shows, we‘ve finally played live again and released a new record. „Molten Husk“ came out four months ago and we couldn‘t be happier with it. We can't remember ever getting so much good feedback for a record. A big thank you goes out to all of you who supported us this year. We had to cancel a couple of shows because of various reasons but we‘ll make it up next year. 

 Shout out to our friends in Ashenspire, Phantom Winter, Organa, A Secret Revealed and to Basti & Moment of Collapse Records. To give you something back, you can use the code ‚ending2022’ on our bandcamp page to get a 25% discount. It’s valid till the end of the holidays.
