S-M 2: Abyss In B Minor is the second album following the release of their self-titled LP in 2006 which received much praise upon it’s release, establishing the Norwegian band as an act that could merge the lilting, ethereal melodies with crushingly loud, shimmering distortion. This new album is also their first release for 4AD, with them having recently been signed up to the label.
