One of my favourite female-fronted groups is back on my circuit, believe it or not. Well, there's never any doubt when it comes to Christian Mistress. Some bands just have it in the bag. "All Abandon" isn't the same as the previously-featured "Black to Gold." This one builds up slowly, until you're too far in to go back. Christine Davis is the queen of raw heavy metal; it's still the way that this kind of stuff should be done. "All Abandon" does pick up into quick verses, but it's the slowed one day we will be unveiled that got me good. I'm all in now, so to say. Are you?
A refuge
Leaves you wanting
Torrents overflowing
Come with us
There is excess and lust and it's
Just enough to fire the brimstone
Oh I wanna make a scene
Divination strong in my veins
Radiating so with all abandon
Had the chance to let it go
But we've known for so long
There's no hope against this river
Lost the key
Buried the blood
Now we let it go
With all abandon
Why deny your desire
Ringing out a sounding bell
One day we will be unveiled
You give in, time is now
To slay the saint, build your hell
One day we will be unveiled
