BUTCHER ABC

The sole full-length album released in 2017 by this veteran Japanese Gore/ Death Metal band, active since the mid-nineties and widely respected within the extreme underground for its unwavering dedication to the filthiest and most macabre side of the genre. After a long career built on demos, EPs, splits and compilations, BUTCHER ABC finally delivered its first and only full-length statement with "North of Hell", a record that perfectly encapsulates the band's musical identity.

One of the album's greatest strengths is the way it blends the raw spirit of early Goregrind with the crushing heaviness and darkness of old-school Death Metal. Rather than reinventing its approach, the band remains firmly committed to its roots, offering a collection of dense, morbid and powerful compositions shaped by decades of experience within the extreme metal scene. As such, "North of Hell" stands as the definitive expression of BUTCHER ABC's long-established sound.
