Sounds Like: Quotes from ABADDON reviews:
"This is death metal, complete with guttural growls and demon conjuring chords...The Concubine delivers striking blows of hellish rhythms, and vocals that jockey between Glen Benton's rock bottom grumbles to Dani Filth's theatrical high points." - Outburn
"Enough changes to make Between the Buried and Me sound like simpletons...there are 1,000 impossible meters, limb-wrecking blast beats, dazzling arpeggios, and alternately guttural and reptilian vocals." - Decibel Magazine
"Together with a slew of accomplished solos and melodic leads that will remind at times of Between the Buried and Me, the concoction offers many moments of head-banging worthiness." - Blabbermouth.net
"Churning, technical discordance mixes with rumble grooves, the odd arpeggio solo, deep growls, rasps and to deliver a competent and surprisingly brutal little record...with a more chaotic, dissonant approach to their crumbling death metal influences, The Concubine like their sweeping solos and melody mired in the hefty, squealing tones." - DigitalMetal.com
"this New Jersey quintet recalls Arsis and later Death...the band's ADD doesn't get tiring; in fact, it's kind of charming. " - Stylusmagazine.com
"Abaddon's thirty-minutes play out like an constant aural punishment." - Pastepunk.com
"They have a very cool mix of old school & new school Death Metal elements...These guys can definately hold their own with some of the great out there now. I'm sure we will be seeing a lot more from these guys as they will crush their way to the top of the new wave of Death Metal bands!!!" - Beowulfproductions.com
