Thursday: Abysmal Dawn - Inanimate

     You know I don't necessarily go in for the whole Throwback Thursday thing (although I have done Thrashback Thursday a couple of time...) but today's song definitely has a bit of throwback, old school feel despite being a brand spanking new track.

     California's Abysmal Dawn have been putting out death metal records for the better part of a decade, with their latest Obsolescence due out in October. But rather than going the increasingly technical route, Abysmal Dawn seem to have worked on perfecting their riff and groove crafting. Or at least that's what new track "Inanimate" would lead me to believe.

     "Inanimate" is built on big, grooving death metal riffs. It's not fast as fuck or techy as fuck, but it's still got heavy in a distinctly death metal way. No idea what I'm talking about? Just listen to the song already. It might not be my everyday cup of tea, but sometimes a little simpler and a little more streamlined is exactly what you need.
