From
Wikipedia Abigail Williams is a symphonic black metal band originally from Phoenix, Arizona, but now based in New York City, taking its name from Abigail Williams, one of the original and foremost accusers in the Salem witch trials of 1692.
The band was formed in 2005. After touring extensively, including a United Kingdom tour in 2006, its debut release was the Legend EP in 2007, which mixed metalcore with symphonic black metal, and was described by Allmusic as "a perfect example of an American recording with a very Nordic-influenced sound". According to vocalist/guitarist Ken Sorceron, the EP was only released so that the band would have something to promote, explaining "a lot of the songs are, like, older songs, and they felt a bit old. At the time we were trying to make an album and we just couldn't finish it on time for some tours"
