released September 2, 2016

The black metal abomination known as USELESS have unveiled their debut LP. "Absence of Grace" is a disgusting and oppressive slab of sick old-school black metal and bridges the gap between Norwegian black metal and the US black metal scene. It is slow and hypnotic, yet cold and depressive at the same time. The sound is best described as old Burzum meets Xasthur and "Demise" era Nachtmystium.

Towards the gallows, into the ultimate nightmare.

"this is an album designed for the indoctrinated only; newcomers beware! Useless are all about the overall atmosphere and that atmosphere is akin to a slow walk to the gallows; wretched, forlorn and consigned to the inevitable death that awaits."
WORSHIP METAL 8/10

"Absence of Grace is a compelling five-track release utterly absorbed with frostbitten black metal grooves that work their way into your consciousness so effortlessly you suspect someone’s turning a Phillips screwdriver. The black metal narcissism simply oozes from its very pores, a totally vacant feeling creating an uncompromising atmosphere of despair, indeed utter Uselessness."
MIDLANDS ROCKS 8/10

"Useless are magical to me since they so clearly understand the fundamental concepts of what black metal should be and their execution is so tight. "
METAL INJECTION 7/10

The band pays tribute to old-school black metal without becoming a cliché. Their music is exactly what I want when I want to listen to straight-up Second Wave black metal. The riffs were memorable and weren’t diluted by too-long run times; the drums were resonant and powerful without being overpowering, and the songwriting was excellent overall. Finland black metal band att the finest. 10/10 ⚔🖤⚔. SANDRA.N.696

PSA: if there was an album you heard a couple years ago and thought it was ok, listen to it again and you might love it. That's what happened to me with this album. I cannot fathom why it didn't stick with me back then. Same thing happened with Decoherence's Unitarity for that matter. Matten
