ABRUPTUM – Vi Sonus Veris Nigrae Malitiaes, DLP Gatefold

• 180 gram heavy red vinyl double LP
• Gatefold jacket with embossed logo, UV high gloss varnish, and flood red printing inside pockets.

Founded in 1989 by Tony “IT” Särkkä, Abruptum stood apart from the black metal wave they emerged from. Described by Euronymous as “the audial essence of pure black evil,” their ritualistic noise and atmosphere pushed the genre beyond riffs and structure into something darker and more formless. Vi Sonus Veris Nigrae Malitiaes (1996) remains IT’s ultimate vision, now reissued by NWN!
