With a career spanning over 20 years in a volatile scene, Abigail Williams has been providing a stable output and proven to be a mainstay in the global Black Metal scene. Having been invited to play all over the world during their existence and with a vast discography consisting of 6 albums and 2 EP’s under their belts, their latest release ‘A Void Within Existence’, marks another highlight for the ever evolving American outfit. Harrowing, cinematic, and utterly uncompromising, the album was met with rave reviews across the board as can be seen in the examples underneath.
Now, for the first time since 2018, Abigail Williams is planning to return and set foot once again on the European mainland. With exclusive UK & German shows at Fortress Fest and Zappenduster Festival already set in stone, this tour is shaping up to be a promising live mix between old familiars and new classics alike.
“A Void Within Existence is a deeply honest, heartfelt black metal album that synthesizes all the great elements Abigail Williams has shown across their career into one package. It proves there’s still plenty of fire in the band’s heart, regardless of how much life tries to beat down artist and listener alike.”
“Even if it doesn’t it feels like the group – or, to be more precise, mainman Ken Sorceron, the one true constant in the band throughout the years – have long since stopped caring, as so much of A Void Within Existence feels totally unconcerned with the expectations and artificial limitations imposed by others and wholly focussed on walking its own path (of broken glass). What all this says to me is that Sorceron and co. – whether consciously or not – have attempted (and, I would argue, succeeded) to condense and refine their instantly-recognisable approach to Black Metal into a form that is both tighter and more technical while also expanding and enhancing the dynamic scope of their signature sound.”
Support by Shagor
Shagor emerged into existence in 2018, unveiling their first full-length oﬀering, Sotteklugt, in 2020 under the formidable banner of Babylon Doom Cult Records. Sotteklugt garnered praise both near and far, receiving acclaim from critics and selling out its vinyl pressings within just two months. In 2023, Shagor followed this
triumph with live performances at renowned festivals such as Roadburn and Samhain.
In 2025 Shagor unveiled their second opus 'Lyksalver' under the esteemed banner of Vendetta Records. ‘Lyksalver’ was once again met with widespread critical acclaim in the underground metal scene. After being invited to play Samhain Festival twice in 2025 among a string of successful shows in The Netherlands and Belgium, Shagor is ready to venture out to further shores and cross further borders.
