It's been a long while since an update came, so here's one!

Everything has been recorded EXCEPT for the bass tracks. Our bassist has been really busy with his day-job. The bass tracks will be recorded by next week, hopefully!

The guest-spots done by CJ Kao of Chthonic, Rigel of Dawn of Azazel and Byron of Spearhead sound awesome and this album will be our strongest release yet.

Prepare yourselves for this.

Cheers,
Mike P. and AOTS

Hi Everybody,

Kevin has finished tracking the drums over in the US, and we are now busy preparing for what will be the best album we have ever done to date.

We will be entering Snakeweed Studios here in Singapore next week to record guitars and vocals for "Come Hither O Herald Of Death".

The final tracklist for the album is as follows:

1. To Delve In Dreamless Sleep
2. Enslave Fire
3. The Quandary Of Flesh
4. Oracle
5. Veneration Unorthodox
6. Perpetual Decline
7. The Necropolitan
8. Recesses Of The Hollow
9. Enlightenment Despised
10.Dawn Of A Dead Aeon

Tracks like "Dawn Of A Dead Aeon" from our Promo 2007 EP will be re-recorded for the album.

Guest musicians will be announced in due time.

Thank you for your support!!!

Hail and Kill,
Mike Priest and ABSENCE OF THE SACRED

Read more on the story here.

Quoted:
Death metal band Absence Of The Sacred also took its time to put up
a video online. Their self-financed video for Dawn Of A Dead Aeon, a
single on their second album, was shot in three days in 2007. The
slick, gothic video was on YouTube last week.

Mike Priest, 25, the band's vocalist, said the two people involved were not satisfied with their editing work at first. And one of them quit, adding to the
delay.

He said: 'Most of the videos made by local bands lack
depth and effort. There is no actual conceptualisation, mainly just
them playing their songs or having a simple story board that appeals to
the more simple of mind.'

It was, he said, 'typical MTV garbage the world could do without'.

Hi Everyone,

Here is an update from us. We spent almost two exhausting weeks doing the guitar scratch tracks/basic drum programming for the entirety of our new album.

Kevin Talley has received our tracks and is currently in the process of recording the drums to the new songs. We can't wait to announce the next update which will include the tracklisting and videos from Kevin.

Till then,
Mike Priest and ABSENCE OF THE SACRED

Hi Everyone,

We've been rather quiet these days as everyone's been busy with work. However, we have brilliant news (one of which has been mentioned in the subject header)!

Vijesh from the mighty OSHIEGO will be doing drums for our live shows! Vijesh has shown utmost potential and improvement and has proven himself to be absolutely capable in playing our songs, both old and new.

We are currently finishing up the writing process for the third full-length album, and soon we will be recording the guitar tracks for our "surprise" drummer from the US. More news will be announced soon.

Expect nothing short of crushing brutality, progressive sections and blistering rhythms for our third full-length. Everything has been going great, and the new songs sound fucking killer.

The title of this upcoming behemoth is "Come Hither O Herald Of Death".

Be Forewarned, Or DIE!

Mike Priest and ABSENCE OF THE SACRED

Greetings Everyone,

Just a quick update from the Bangcock Festival here in Thailand. We would like to salute our comrades whom we have had the pleasure of sharing the stage with, namely DEFILED, HYDROPHOBIA, MASOCHIST, A GOOD DAY FOR KILLING, CALAMITOUS and INTRICATED. A big THANK YOU and HAILS to our Thai legions and brothers who have supported us all the way! Ko boon kup!!!

We would like to thank the organizers XXXulaynus, Pong, Chot and the rest of the Siamese Brutalism crew for doing such a killer show and for making us feel as comfortable as possible. Hails brothers!!!

New live photos are up, courtesy of C.T.D. Zine and Metal Magazine Thailand. AOTS will have a feature in Metal Magazine Thailand in the next coming issue, so look out for that.

On a more somber note, Hans will no longer be playing drums for AOTS. He will still be distributing our titles through Blind Disciple Distribution, and he will always be recognized and be remembered for his work in AOTS as the drummer and keyboardist. He is still a comrade, a friend and a brother to us, and he might contribute some keyboard work to AOTS in the near future.

We have a new drummer for live shows, whose name will be revealed in the upcoming days.

Kill and kill again,

Mike Priest and ABSENCE OF THE SACRED
