Former Immortal singer Abbath has unleashed his self-titled solo project. There's no doubt he picked up where he left off with Immortal. 'Abbath' contains some of his best cuts to date and stands up against the back catalog of Immortal. Vocally he sounds stronger and angrier than he ever has and musically provides plenty of aggressive, blackened riffing over really heavy songs like 'To War', 'Count the Dead' and 'Eternal'. The gem of the album for me is 'Root of the Mountain' which is this sweepingly majestic song with atmospheric and haunting guitar arrangements. It's plain to see that Abbath has much more to offer.
