Today marks 1 year since Usurper dropped.
I learned a lot about myself in the process of making this EP come to life, and it’s opened doors I never would have dreamt of since its release. I am truly thankful for everyone who has jammed it, purchased a copy, reviewed it, interviewed the band, etc. - it truly means the world to me.
This is my first “official” musical release (despite 22+ years of playing guitar), and marks the end of the era of me being in my own way with creating the music that I want to make.
I sincerely appreciate everyone who had a hand in bringing this from an idea in my home studio to reality. At the time this was getting fleshed out, I didn’t even have a consistent internet connection and that’s a whole can of worms for a project based on sharing files with people far away haha.
This past year, I have worked harder than ever on growing my skills as a guitarist, songwriter, and composer with the end goal being to drop a full length follow-up to Usurper. While that vision remains and is being chipped away at steadily, I’ve also dove into a few projects with some monster musicians, which I am both stoked on and honored to be a part of.
2026 will bring the shred.🤘🏻

Three strokes past midnight, he estimated. Superstition ruled that the dead roamed the earth. The stories scared people into hiding, and like ghosts, they would not appear until the next day. Ghosts, he thought. He heard that a ghost was an emotion, twisted and torn; resulting from a death so violent that its vindictiveness would be manifested in the form of a haunting. If that were true, he wondered where all the ghosts were for the people he had killed, and if he would ever meet them. -Savantin Vescain, Trials of the Serpent. Art by Justin Abraham
By far my favorite character I've written. Over the years I've spent on this story he became so much more than originally planned. (Who doesn't love a morally grey warlord?)

“And what is that?”
“Your life.”
“You speak of mercy and then threaten me?”

Info -
Abyssalis imbibe various elements of contemporary death metal to concoct music that is at once technical, groovy, and riff-driven. Their previous EP “The Mountain” drew a good deal of attention for doing just that and they’ve taken things up a notch on their latest release. The songs are carefully structured - they are fast but not rushing through all the time, just so that they can embed themselves in the minds of the listeners. The riffs are catchy and fleshed out, ensuring that they remain memorable, and the delivery is brisk yet impactful. Mac Smith, fresh from his stint in Eschaton, once again does a stellar job doing vocals matching the tone and mood of the music, varying his deep growls with acidic rasps especially in moments of the blackened influences seeping through. “Adaptation” is a solid, enjoyable EP and coupled with their previous material as bonus, the definitive release serves as a fine introduction for this unheralded band that is poised for bigger things in the future.
For fans of - Soreption, Eschaton, Fleshbore, Decapitated, Demon King
Line up -
Josh Steverson - Guitars
Mac Smith (Eschaton, Apogean) - Vocals and lyrics
Jack Blackburn (Unaligned, Killitorous) - Drums
Cole Daniels (Fleshbore, Unaligned) - Bass
