In 2023 Imperial Crystalline Entombment emerged from their 20-year hibernation with sophomore masterwork, Ancient Glacial Resurgence, and a series of carefully chosen, frost-bitten live performances. Now the inimitable battalion strikes immediately again with another shattering full-length of mystical black metal savagery.
New album, Abominable Astral Summoning, the third revelation from I.C.E., is the latest apocalyptic statement from a legion once seemingly cryogenically frozen in time – advancing their legacy in a hostile whirlwind of compulsive new paeans to the ancient anti-God Råvaskieth.
Tracklisting:
A Call To Worship
Insufferable Shivers
Phantoms Of Ice
Frigid Spirits Arcane
White Behemoths Of Woe
Avalanche Apocalypse
Esoteric Offerings
The Cold Cosmic Veil
Cryogenic Death
From The Arctic Void
Clandestine Cavern Sacrifice
I.C.E. had this to say about their forthcoming assault: “Relentless is the attack from the wrath of Ravaskieth! We are continual as the ever-flowing sands of time. There is no way to prepare for the coming death. The earth will freeze and crumble to the never ending cold and bleak emptiness that will consume all life. The legion of I.C.E. has now evolved into a bigger and stronger blizzard storm force with the addition of Avalanche (guitars) – the mover of the glacial mountains! You will all suffocate under the heavy weight of bright white snow, returning the earth to its original frozen arctic state!”
To prepare listeners for the onslaught, Imperial Crystalline Entombment presents a video for first single “Insufferable Shivers”:
True to I.C.E.’s inimitable signature style, the track is a relentless and addictive maelstrom of frostbitten riffs and blizzard tempos, with the chilling video a perfect visual manifestation. The band expands: “This footage is but a small glimpse into the astral arctic rituals that are performed by I.C.E. in places that shall remain unspoken. All those who dared travel to these crystalline caverns did not make it back alive save one. One remained to spread the fear and warning to all others that obliteration is near. The arctic storm is coming for you all!”
Abominable Astral Summoning will be released on CD, Vinyl – including an exclusive DMP variant – and Digital on July 11th. A special t-shirt design will accompany the launch. Pre-orders are possible via the label’s EU, US, and Bandcamp shops.
