ABSOLUTION DENIED (AD) is a melodic death metal band from Medellín, Colombia that has sought to consolidate an aggressive, elaborate, innovative and consistent sound. AD are: Julian Castaño on vocals, Felipe Osorio and Pablo Perez on guitars and Gonzalo Restrepo on drums. Since 2010, AD has had two great collaborators as bassists: Alejandro Mejia and Rafael Otálora.
AD is also a project, a structure, a signaling platform. From musical creation intended denial of pardon and peace for all and all those who daily expropriate what remains of humans. Denying the absolution is to impose a sentence of anything that keeps us prisoners. In 2011, AD released SINISTER TIME a three-song EP.

Californian quartet defining themselves as Sci-Fi black metal, maybe due to cosmic and interstellar topics, sounding like blackened death metal too ("The Maw"). It's a well-balanced melodic black metal album, with some fast-paced tracks and nice rhythmic transitions reminding me of Swiss band Celtic Frost (e.g. Terminal Odyssey). In other words not overly dominated by drum speed and also not sounding as extreme or as raw as some BM can be. sachavonkarl74

I think I discovered this one (well, Saor in general) in 2022. In addition to an embalming soundtrack go-to, it's definitely a cold-weather favorite. skyturtles

Iranian Depressive Black Metal. This is a one man band whose other project is Ekove Efrits. This is very dark but does not even remotely descend into any kind of dullness along the way. Truly fantastic music! Highly recommended!!! bmurator
