ABYSSUS stand as one of the most significant forces within the Greek Death Metal scene, having forged their path since 2011. Drawing profound inspiration from genre-defining pioneers such as DEATH, OBITUARY, BENEDICTION and BOLT THROWER, the band preserves the unadulterated spirit of old school death metal while imprinting their own distinct identity.
On October 23rd, ABYSSUS will release their new, third full length album, entitled „The Reign“, a ferocious testament to their artistic evolution. The album encapsulates all the core elements that have defined death metal through the decades: raw aggression, blistering riff-work, and a suffocating, commanding atmosphere. Once again, the visual narrative is entrusted to Andreas Marschall (IN FLAMES, BLIND GUARDIAN, DIMMU BORGIR a.o.), whose artwork enhances the band’s sonic vision with striking intensity.
Today, ABYSSUS release their third new single and a video clip for the track „The Prophecy“.

Vocalist Konstantinos Analytis comments: “Our new single “The Prophecy” is a short burst of pure energy – a little explosive with a distinct Punk/Grind edge. It’s raw, aggressive, and straight to the point, delivering its message without compromise. Lyrically, the song deals with the end of the world, drawing inspiration from the growing number of natural disasters we’ve witnessed in recent years. As extreme weather events become more frequent, more destructive, and increasingly deadly, the song reflects the unsettling reality of the world we live in. It’s also one of those tracks that was made for the stage, and we’re certain it will earn a permanent place in the setlist of our upcoming live shows.”
The album “The Reign” will be released on a CD and limited Vinyl version on purgatory purple. On Bandcamp you will also find various bundles with new merchandise.

From the very outset, ABYSSUS placed equal emphasis on studio output and live performance. A steady stream of EPs and split releases established their presence within the international Underground metal community. Their debut full-length, „Into the Abyss“ (2015), garnered widespread acclaim and marked a pivotal moment in the band’s evolution – leading to increasingly frequent appearances both in Greece and across Europe, often sharing the stage with renowned acts, like POSSESSED, SINISTER, SUICIDAL ANGELS and ROTTING CHRIST.
With renewed creative vigour and greater maturity, ABYSSUS unveiled their sophomore album „Death Revival“ in 2022 via Transcending Obscurity Records. Adorned with an arresting cover by the legendary Andreas Marschall, the album was met with universal praise, further cementing the band’s reputation for delivering unrelenting, yet masterfully crafted, death metal. More shows with a.o. ASPHYX, TANKARD, GRAVE DIGGER and THE CROWN followed.
Relentlessly evolving, ABYSSUS remain true to their roots while continuing to push the boundaries of the genre. With a prolific discography and an ever-growing presence on the live circuit, they have rightfully earned their place as a formidable name within the global death metal landscape.
