Abysmal Oceans is a Maldivian based black metal band founded by Occultus Monolith & Unholy One followed by Usham Demoriel. Drawing inspiration from the desolate tales of Maldivian folklore and the mysteries of the ocean, Abysmal Oceans crafted a sound of scorching vocals with aggressive guitar riffs, thunderous drums, and haunting bass lines.

United to complete the triad of the pure oceanic chaos, Abysmal Oceans started writing for their raw and dark compositions in 2023.

History

Ravenous Abyss - EP (2024)

In 2023, Abysmal Oceans began recording for the EP 'Ravenous Abyss', a collection of four songs: Dominion, Ascension, War March, and Nightmares.

Composed by Occultus Monolith, Unholy One, and Usham Demoriel, the mixing and mastering were handled by George Nerantzis. While the drum duties were handled by Krzysztof Klingbein, the song Ascension features a guest appearance by Fufoo. The EP was produced by Usham Demoriel.

Ravenous Abyss was released on 8th June 2024, to observe World Ocean Day.

Musical style and genre

Abysmal Oceans creates their unique style of Maldivian black metal around the haunting tales of Maldivian folklore and the profound mysteries of the ocean.

The lyrics dive deep into Maldivian dark folklore, exploring the essence of these ancient stories and the enigmatic secrets hidden beneath. Their music is a blend of cultural storytelling and the intense energy of metal, offering listeners a visceral experience that connects them to the rich, mysterious world of Maldivian lore and the power of black metal's emotive soundscapes.

The EP 'Ravenous Abyss' revolves around Abysma, a powerful oceanic entity that dominates the waters around the Maldives, driven by a relentless desire for conquest.

The music and lyrics of the EP explore this mythical being's influence, a force of chaos and destruction in the oceanic realm.

Each song unfolds a chapter in Abysma's tale of domination and conflict. The first track, 'Dominion', portrays Abysma's rule over the oceanic realm surrounding the Maldives, emphasising her power and influence over the seas. The second song, 'Ascension', narrates Abysma's ascent from the depths of the ocean to the surface world, symbolizing her emergence and threat to humanity.

In 'War March', the third track, the EP delves into Abysma's war against mankind, depicting a relentless battle. 'Nightmares', the fourth song, explores the aftermath of Abysma's domination, leaving behind a haunting legacy and lingering fear in the hearts of all humankind.
