Los Angeles death metal titans, Abysmal Dawn, will be releasing a new EP, Nightmare Frontier, on February 4 via Season of Mist. An advanced audio stream of the full EP can be found below.

During the height of the worldwide apocalyptic dystopia of 2020, the band persevered and released one of the greatest albums of their career, Phylogenesis. Now, they pick up where they left off, unleashing a solid four-song EP.  

Nightmare Frontier was mixed and mastered by Charles Elliott at Tastemaker Audio. Drums were engineered by John Haddad at Trench Studios, while tracking for all instruments was handled by Elliott. The artwork for Nightmare Frontier was created by Par Olofson.

Pre-orders for Nightmare Frontier are now live here, as well as from their official Abysmal Dawn online store here. The single and EP can be pre-saved across all streaming services here.

Abysmal Dawn had been scheduled to open for Obscura on their tour across The United States and Canada, beginning February 3 in San Diego, CA, and wrapping up March 23 in Fresno, CA. Unfortunately, Abysmal Dawn will not be hitting the road as planned.

A statement from vocalist / guitarist Charles Elliott reads: "We regret to announce that we will not be able to join our brothers in Obscura, Vale Of Pnath and Interloper across North America this February/March. In all my years of touring since 2006, I've never canceled a tour and I have always found a way to make it work against sometimes seemingly impossible odds. Please believe us when we say it wasn't an easy decision, and it's for reasons we'd like to keep private at the moment. Our sincerest apologies to the fans that were hoping to see us on this one, but it was not meant to be. We wish the other bands a successful tour, and we hope to see you and all your beautiful-smiling-healthy faces again in the near future."

Lineup:

Charles Elliott - guitars, vocals
