    For those that don't know of Ablach, we were a Grindcore band from Aberdeen, Scotland.

    We played approximately 50 shows, mainly in the UK, between 2007 and 2010.

    Our second album Dha (Two) is now available for free download on J Randall's (Agoraphobic Nosebleed) net label 'Grindcore Karaoke':

    There's 13 songs and a booklet with lyrics/explanations/artwork included in the download.

    Footage of our penultimate show at Obscene Extreme Festival 2010 can be viewed here:

    Ablach members remain active in the following bands:

    Filthpact - Filthpact

    Bonesaw - Bonesaw

    Rating: 4/6 - Commendable.

    I remember being suitably impressed with these guys when I saw them live in London not too long ago, and the supreme intensity they had onstage, which in some cases can be lost when a band enters the studio, is definitely not lost on Aon. Musically lying somewhere between Repulsion and Nasum, these guys will lay waste to your stereo with their hard-hitting crusty grind. The 13 tracks on offer here also include excellent covers of Napalm Deaths Unchallenged Hate and Terrorizers Corporation Pull In not that you should need any further incentive to pick up this great release!

    Rating: 7.5/10 Excellent.

    Closely aligned with crust/grind punks Filthpact and Autopsy-worshipping death primitives Bonesaw, Aberdeens furiously old school grindbastards Ablach follow their jaw-dropping 2008 demo with as vicious a debut as anything with an early MOSH catalogue number. Influenced by the crunchy extremity of From Enslavement To Obliteration and informed by the history and culture of Scotland, dual vocals spit out paeons to historical betrayal and contemporary failure in English and Gaelic, neatly underlining the difference between nationalism and nationality as being prepared to confront and catalogue not only injustices against your kin past but of the injustices they themselves perpetrated, proving Alba every bit as perfidious as Albion. The musical reference points may not be lighting fireworks in the aisles of Rough Trade but serious statements require direct, unsubtle acts of communication and as the anarchopunks discovered when their message fell on deaf ears, there was nowt more effective than the brutal blast of old school crust/grind.

    RELENTLESSLY SAVAGE GRINDCORE STORM DESIGNED TO REMOVE YOUR FACE.

    Embracing the all out fury of Brutal Truth and Insect Warfare and possessed of the gigantic, grimy sound of early Raging Speedhorn, this vomited up pile of poisonous filth is definitely worth falling into. Sounding like they really, really want to hurt you, the malicious intent and sheer ferocity that seethes through every single track here is exhilarating, the rawness of the recording maintaining a punkish edge that is the perfect match for such unpleasant music. With only one track breaking the 2minute mark, Ablach ensure that their attack is precise and yields the most devastating results possible, making sure theres not a seconds opportunity for relief. Lovely.
