URSA combine the traditional sensibilities of doom pioneers like Candlemass and Solitude Aeternus with progressive leanings à la Rush and Yes while being fully committed to a high-fantasy lyrical aesthetic, in the tradition of Cirith Ungol and Pagan Altar. Abyss Between the Stars features a collection of epic tales envisioning otherworldly beasts and beings.
The record was recorded with Tim Green (Melvins, Earthless, Wolves in The Throne Room) in the beautiful forest setting of Louder Studios in Grass Valley, CA. Vocalist/bassist Matt Solis says the recording of Abyss Between the Stars was in the bands standard style:
'We always prefer to record live together, even in Cormorant, because we feel it captures the essence of who we are as musicians. There was nothing really unusual about what we did, this is loud-ass rock music with guitar, bass and drums, so we wanted to keep it pretty basic'.
