For now, you can stream &#8220;Emergent Evolution&#8221; now <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=352RBWh6ViU\">HERE<\/a>.<br \/>\n<br \/>\nFounded in 2002 by guitarist\/vocalist Steffen Kummerer, German progressive death metal band OBSCURA caused a stir when they &#8211; out of nowhere &#8211; toured as support for the legendary Suffocation on the band&#8217;s European tour in 2006 and independently released their debut album &#8216;Retribution&#8217; that same year. From its very beginnings, the has band (named after Gorguts&#8217; inimitable 1993 full-length) demonstrated an uncanny ability for blending different forms of technical, cerebral metal into a coherent synthesis of death, thrash and black metal merged with progressive elements.<br \/>\n<br \/>\nNow, five years since the release of the band&#8217;s universally-acclaimed 2011 release &#8216;Omnivium,&#8217; the progressive metal masters are poised to return with their strongest and most dynamic release to date. The aptly-named &#8216;Akr\u00f3asis&#8217; (Greek for &#8220;hearing&#8221; or &#8220;listening&#8221;) draws on all the various elements of OBSCURA&#8217;s signature sound and combines those qualities into a cohesive and mind-blowing whole. Produced by the band and V. Santura (Triptykon, Pestilence), &#8216;Akr\u00f3asis&#8217; is eight songs diverse enough to serve as a near-comprehensive introduction to all of extreme metal. Packed to the gills with virtuosic musicianship, compelling themes, and airtight songwriting, &#8216;Akr\u00f3asis&#8217; will undoubtedly breathe new life into death metal, progressive metal and beyond.<br \/>\n<br \/>\nSource: Lambgoat<br \/>\n<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/RealmOfObscura\">https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/RealmOfObscura<\/a><\/center><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>OBSCURA has unleashed a new five-minute track titled &#8220;Emergent Evolution.&#8221; The song comes from the&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_coblocks_attr":"","_coblocks_dimensions":"","_coblocks_responsive_height":"","_coblocks_accordion_ie_support":"","_mo_disable_npp":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-69681","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/69681","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=69681"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/69681\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=69681"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=69681"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=69681"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
