UMUR
"TerrorVision" is the 10th full-length studio album by Belgian death metal act Aborted. The album was released through Century Media Records in September 2018. It´s the successor to "Retrogore" from 2016 although the two albums are bridged by the "Bathos" single from June 2017. There has been one lineup change since the release of "Retrogore (2016)" as bassist JB van der Wal has been replaced by Stefano Franceschini.

Stylistically the material on "TerrorVision" is in the trademark sound of Aborted. Brutal and technically well played gore themed death metal featuring both deep growling vocals and higher pitched aggressive vocals. The musicianship is generally through the roof with technical precision drumming, sharp and brutal guitar riffs, well played leads, and Sven de Caluwé delivering his distinct sounding vocal arsenal in the usual convincing manner. Aborted have a relatively unique sound and are one of the artists on the more brutal end of the death metal spectrum, which manage to stand out.

The material on "TerrorVision" are well written and the album also features a fat, brutal, and detailed sound production, which suits the material well, so upon conclusion it´s another quality release by Aborted. It doesn´t reach the heights of it´s direct predecessor, which to my ears is one of the highlights of the band´s discography, and in that respect "TerrorVision" is a slight disappointment, but overall it´s a strong release and a 3.5 star (70%) rating is deserved.
