From Los Angeles, California

From last.fm:

Abysmal Dawn plays aggressive modern death that combines some of the best elements of both black and thrash metal. The band seamlessly blends the catchiness and technicality of early 90's American death, with ample doses of atmosphere, melody and the brutality of their contemporaries. Pain ridden death growls, complex drumming and soaring leads. Hailing from Los Angeles CA, Abysmal Dawn was formed in late-2003 after Charles Elliott's (guitars/vocals) departure from the long running local blackened/death act Rise.
