Conceptually, the album represented their own take on \"the sordid tales of the Necronomicon, the book of the dead, of a corpse drowned in a tepid sauce made of gore and fun, covered with a good old 80's slasher vibe\" – basically everything a horror-obsessed metalhead could want.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nWhat made this eighth full-length special wasn't just the Hellraiser obsession (though the closing track \"Cenobites\" was a delightful reference to Pinhead and the series). This was an exercise in deathgrind brutality that somehow managed to be aggressive, intense, violent and horrific while remaining surprisingly catchy and memorable. The album was amazingly well-rounded for brutal death metal. Jacob Hansen's production once again gave them that surgical precision, while guest spots from Vincent Bennett (The Acacia Strain) and Phlegeton (Wormed) added extra venom. The album showcases Aborted at their most uncompromisingly brutal yet surprisingly sophisticated.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nFor fans of: Suffocation, Cannibal Corpse, Carcass, The Acacia Strain, and Wormed","brand":"details","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53895937786179,"sku":"SCR082LP","price":25.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0781\/1560\/2755\/files\/4260688192763.jpg?v=1763387719"},{"product_id":"aborted-termination-redux-vinyl-lp","title":"Aborted - Termination Redux (Vinyl LP)","description":"Belgian death metal veterans Aborted delivered a brutal statement with their EP \"Termination Redux\", marking their 20th anniversary with a vicious five-track assault that proved the band was far from coasting on past glories. This wasn't filler material – these tracks demonstrated just how far the band had evolved technically while keeping their trademark savagery firmly intact. Alongside exclusive new material, they threw in a completely re-recorded version of the Aborted classic \"The Holocaust Re-Incarnate,\" showing exactly how much ground the band had covered since their early days.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nAfter the atmospheric opener \"Liberate Me Ex Inferis,\" all bets were off. The title track \"Termination Redux\" and the barbarically titled \"Vestal Disfigurement Upon The Sacred Chantry\" pummeled listeners with Ken Bedene's precision drumming and bone-crushing riffs, while \"Bound In Acrimony\" stood out as the absolute knockout punch. What was impressive was the hit rate – 15 minutes of runtime with zero dead weight. Every song landed perfectly and was clearly designed to be experienced at maximum volume. The production nailed the sweet spot between technical prowess and raw filth, ensuring every blast beat and every one of Sven de Caluwé's growls hit with full force. A \"perfidious mixture of death metal, grindcore, and hardcore\" – couldn't have put it better themselves.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nFor fans of: Cattle Decapitation, Benighted, Cryptopsy, Dying Fetus, and Pig Destroyer","brand":"details","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53895938507075,"sku":"SCR081LP","price":20.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0781\/1560\/2755\/files\/4260688192732.jpg?v=1763387754"},{"product_id":"aborted-retrogore-vinyl-lp","title":"Aborted - Retrogore (Vinyl LP)","description":"Belgian death metal masters Aborted unleashed their most devastating statement with \"Retrogore\", their ninth studio album that served as both a celebration of the band's 20-year legacy and a memorial for the true essence of death metal. This critically acclaimed masterpiece received overwhelmingly positive reception upon release. The album marked a significant milestone for the band, showcasing their evolution while maintaining their signature brutality.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nFeaturing relentless brutality, gut-wrenching drums, buzz-saw guitars, and guttural vocals deep from the abyss, \"Retrogore\" delivered in spades while introducing darker atmospheric elements and sinister melodiousness courtesy of the guitar duo Mendel bij de Leij and Ian Jekelis. Remarkable samples from horror movies with cult status were scattered throughout, while guest appearances from Travis Ryan (Cattle Decapitation), David Davidson (Revocation), Jason Keyser (Origin), and Julien Truchan (Benighted) felt perfectly integrated rather than forced. From the unassuming opener \"Dellamorte Dellamore\" to the total gorefest title track, this was shocking in the same way an '80s B-horror film is – brutal death metal in its sheerest and most vicious form, the epitome of aural horror.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nFor fans of: Cattle Decapitation, Benighted, Cryptopsy, Dying Fetus, and Origin","brand":"details","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53895938834755,"sku":"SCR080LP","price":25.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0781\/1560\/2755\/files\/4260688192701.jpg?v=1763387790"},{"product_id":"aborted-la-grande-mascarade-vinyl-lp","title":"Aborted - La Grande Mascarade (Vinyl LP)","description":"Belgian death metal veterans Aborted delivered the goods with the EP \"La Grande Mascarade\" – and now it's finally available on vinyl. Three tracks that showed the band still knew how to bring the pain after all these years, without forgetting their roots. The EP worked perfectly as an appetizer between full albums, delivering exactly what Aborted fans wanted: technical perfection paired with the raw intensity that has made them one of Europe's most important extreme metal bands for years. The opener \"Gloom and the Art of Tribulation\" set the tone immediately – nearly five minutes where technical death metal was skillfully woven together with dark, atmospheric passages.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\"Serpent of Depravity\" and \"Funereal Malediction\" maintained the standard effortlessly, featuring the precise riffs and Sven de Caluwé's unmistakable vocal style that the scene has respected for years. Each track demonstrated that Aborted had mastered their craft perfectly: blast beats met complex guitar work, brutal breakdowns alternated with technical finesse. The whole thing was produced so that both the technical details came through and the raw aggression that defines the Aborted sound.

Released after \"Strychnine.213\", this album was welcomed with open arms. Two years in the making, the album reeked of dedication and intense hard work. Produced, mixed and mastered by Jacob Hansen at Hansen Studios in Denmark, giving it that razor-sharp clarity that became essential to modern extreme metal.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nWhat made this album special wasn't just the pure brutality, \"Global Flatline\" offered both the fastest passages Aborted had ever created as well as the slowest ones these lunatics had ever composed. The result was an organic wall of death metal that left listeners disturbed, deranged and hungry for more. The most redeeming factor was the memorability – while many grindcore acts simply churn out generic songs, \"Global Flatline\" was filled with memorable riffs, killer hooks and destructive drumming.
