District 19 presents:
ABSU - With ZEMIAL For The Sun Of Tiphareth 30th Anniversary Tour
+ special guests: ANCIENT & TRIVAX
11.12.2025 | Hellraiser Leipzig
Einlass 19:00 Uhr | Beginn 19:30 Uhr
Mythological occult metal act and Agonia Records recording act ABSU will return to the stage for a series of concert performances to commemorate the 30th anniversary of the band’s acclaimed second album. The Sun of Tiphareth. Joining Proscriptor will be none other than Greek veterans ZEMIAL in completing the formidable touring line–up. Proscriptor remarks: “2025 will memorialize 30 years of ABSU’s sophomore invocation The Sun of Tiphareth, an album that represents the metaphysical association between phenomenon and noumenon – illusory versus tangible. Within its augmented sense of arcane determination, this album furthered the mythological occult metal approach. Of chaos, the Deep will respond.” He continues: “My alliance with Vorskaath (ex–Agatus/ex–Varathron) dates back to 1991, as we have been traversing parallel paths ever since – culminating in my joining ZEMIAL on stage in 2019 and Vorskaath joining PROSCRIPTOR MCGOVERN’S APSÛ as keyboardist for the sole album under that name.
Therefore, it made utter sense to unite ZEMIAL’s power trio with this reincarnation of ABSU. Ultimately, it is a great honor to feature Vorskaath and company, in joining me, to convey these Tipharethian rites on stage.” Vorskaath recently said about the upcoming collaboration: “The Sun of Tiphareth represents my personal favorite album by ABSU, and through my close contact with Proscriptor, Shaftiel and Equitant, I was able to witness its inceptive creation: from the rehearsal stages until the album’s official release. I look forward to present an accurately thunderous rendition of this black/thrash colossus.”

ANCIENT is a Norwegian black metal band from Bergen, formed in 1992. The band released six full-length albums released by Metal Blade Records to date and a variety of mini-albums, EPs and special releases. Ancient used to have the classic raw black metal sound, similar to Darkthrone's works. Beginning with The Cainian Chronicle, they moved towards a more Nordic/atmospheric black metal sound, akin to Emperor, and a cleaner production. After a period of turmoil concerning their line-up, they went on to add gothic-style instruments such as violins, a female vocalist, and synthesizers to their music.

TRIVAX is an Extreme Metal band that fuses ferocious Black Metal with haunting Middle Eastern themes. Known for their intense sound and uncompromising vision, they are signed to the legendary Osmose Productions. Founded by frontman Shayan in Iran, TRIVAX defied strict laws and cultural restrictions. This included performing rare and risky underground shows in 2011, making them one of the very few Metal bands to ever play in the country, where such music could result in imprisonment or worse.
In search of freedom, Shayan relocated to the United Kingdom to continue the band’s mission. Bassist Sully, originally from Syria, shares a similar experience, having faced punishment for his alternative lifestyle. Their remarkable story was featured in the BBC documentary In the Studio. Now based in the United Kingdom, TRIVAX have become a powerful presence on stage, delivering ferocious and electrifying live performances. Their distinctive blend of raw intensity, dark atmosphere, and Middle Eastern influences sets them apart, leaving audiences both awestruck and devastated.
Their latest album The Great Satan stands as a bold statement of artistic vision and rebellion, fearlessly venturing into realms that many so-called Extreme bands dare not approach.
