After a long 7 months without a solid lineup, our search for a 2nd guitarist is over.

We're glad to announce Rich Catalano as the newest member of Abacinate.  Rich is an extremely talented musician, and we're all psyched to start writing new material with the current lineup.

Our first show with Rich will be Friday May 29th @ Garden Sk8 in Pinebrook, NJ (w/ Fit For An Autopsy & Roger Klotz).

We'd also like to thank our friend Dan Dubrow for filling in on guitar for us, while we were searching for a permanent replacement.

Check out Rich's sick guitar work in his last band, FLOAT FACE DOWN, here:

LYRICS:

(1)

By The Righteous Hands

 An oath of your vengeance, a ritual movement

Teaching a life of required restitution

"Blood for Blood" - Exacting Repentance

To high degrees of forceful salvation accosting the wrath

Unpardonable sins are destroyed in the flesh

Covenant breaking, the coming of Justice for Kirtland

Enforced by The Righteous Hands

Come now, get your "Blood Atonement"

A Prophet is born, A Messenger of God

A City of Faith and Beauty, Homicide

Fate to Deal Death for God is what you'll find

The Visions of a Prophet, A Massacre Revealed

A Question of Free Will, of Cleansing the Impure

A Vision, Decision, Will trigger the Apocalypse

Jesus will come and Destroy Everything

Mormons and Christians will enjoy The Purity

So I guess that You're Right! - Right?

And We're all just.... FUCKED... FUCK

Lundgren! Think about these things for the rest of your life!

The Rest of Your Life...

In your eyes this revelation to cleanse this world to change direction

This living prophet is a living disease, this is the word of the anarchy

These fucking false Prophets are your sole enemy

So rise and Kill Them for their sins

The Avery Family had to pay - They Disavowed a Cult Belief

You will Lay in a Pit of Your Own Judgment

Jeffery Lundgren - Cleans up The Kirtland Streets

By The "Sword of Laban"

DIE

**A song for The Avery Family of Kirtland Ohio. Murdered by Jeffery Lundgren and his Cult of Mormon fanatics in the winter of 1989. **
(Lyrics: Ian Neal - Music: Justin Barteaux, Justin Spaeth, Todd Stern)

(2)

Rife With The Stench and Squalor

 A worthless obsession that could bring me to your knees

A burden on your path, The Lesson

The first is a Blast, The rest is a Breeze

It then gets complicated, Plays into Fears

Thinking takes up too much time.

The hopeless process in my eyes.

The wasted pissing of my life.

From a street called "Many Mind".

Bite me. Blow me. I'm your priest.

Spreading hate of Anything.

-Lets Escape-

The only ones who eat The Fear will be spared

Only the ones who eat The Fear will learn their lesson

The only ones who eat their fear will be spared

Only the ones who eat their fear will learn

Talk is a poison - Listen with hate

Closing your mind and drifting away

So you think you're right?

I know everything and I don't want to hear it!

Stoned! I am too rife

With the stench and squalor of that god-forsaken street

The sunrise is a lie

Lost inside my basement room

I know you know that I'm right! Right

Nowhere. I got Nowhere for Nothing

Don't Care. An What if I did?

Downright. Get Disgusted and Sick of Me

Ruined. You had Trusted and Nourished me

Insults of Defeat. Causes Extremity

An Insatiable need. Forget who's wrong.

Get Up And Kill

(Lyrics: Ian Neal - Music: Justin Spaeth, Justin Barteaux, Todd Stern)

(3)

Shake The Spot

Someones Clowning, Drawing crowds, Embracing them with themes

We got The Champ, here comes the DJ and Wesley makes the scene

Involved in Ritual Sodomy - Involved in Gang Rape Porn

He brings the entertainment that You Clowns enjoy

Underneath, my cock runs deep, I'm obsessing - Fucking White Girls

Depravity, a normal day, I have to say - Porno Masters

It must be what they want - Humiliation they deserve

This is ignorance of pride - Lets slit their throats before they're heard

It's all been said - Content to Shake The Spot

The Junkie is back - And he thinks alot

You can put this to bed - But you can't get caught

You will follow blindly - Content to Shake The Spot

The Truth Behind his Legacy - No Glory to his Sheep

Some might see Atrocities and some might just be Purely Entertained

The Circle now Complete - They all want to be Just Like Wesley

Can't you hear The Melody? - It's Just meant to Confuse you

Your focus is on Debauchery - And the sound of your Voice

The New World you're Discovering - In Interracial Porn

 **This is a song for Wesley Pipes, Tony EverReady, Lupp, Ice Cold, The DJ, The Champ and the whole rest of the gang. Thank you for what you do and who you are. You are a daily inspiration the the members of Abacinate**
(Lyrics: Ian Neal - Music: Todd Stern, Justin Spaeth, Matt Babulski, Justin Barteaux)
