Abigail Williams‘ new album “In The Absence Of Light” has now been scheduled for a September 28th North American release date through Candlelight Records. The album, which was mixed by Peter Tagtgren (Dimmu Borgir, Immortal), will be the groups first with guitarist Ian Jekelis and drummer Ken Bedene.
Speaking on the effort, band frontman Ken Sorceron revealed that the effort would feature “a lot less keyboards” as the band “wanted to do something different”. He also went on to offer the following insight:
“We let ourselves have much more room with writing this album, kind of a more open, free environment than any we have employed before. We literally constructed the songs as we went. Ken would be in the drum room and Ian and I would be in the control room and we just played for hours. We would listen back and pick out what we thought was good and we put songs together. We recorded everything with much more ease and I think it has helped in capturing a very honest vibe.”
