Absu announced a lineup change and that they will join the Immortal on their return to the US for six shows early next year. Drummer/vocalist Proscriptor notes, "We feel extremely privileged to have been invited to participate on Immortal'ss All Shall Fall US tour in February 2011. Even though it is only a six-date tour, it's a colossal one for Absu to be performing with our former label mates of many years. We had the opportunity to share the stage with Immortal over eight years ago and this will be a very good experience for us."
These upcoming performances will mark the first time that Absu will appear live as a trio. Proscriptor comments, "I am here to announce that guitarist Aethyris McKay has decided to quit ABSU and has recently relocated to Oslo, Norway to join Pantheon I. Working with Aethyris for the past three years has been a prosperous experience and I have the utmost respect for him as my comrade and a superlative musician. He assisted me in resurrecting the band from its hiatus stage and I truly thank him for helping me recast the spell of mythological occult metal."
