Founded in 2002, the group have established their reputation by releasing five studio albums which have been highly acclaimed by fans and press alike, accompanied by playing support tours (with Sepultura, Children of Bodom, Cannibal Corpse, among others) as well as OBSCURA their own headline shows all around the globe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"text-align:center\">Band founder Steffen Kummerer states, &#8220;Partnering with the world&#8217;s biggest independent metal  label feels like the start of a new chapter for Obscura and we are very  much looking forward to a great collaboration and to releasing our forthcoming sixth studio album with a great team at our side.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"text-align:center\">Nuclear Blast&#8217;s Jaap Wagemaker adds, &#8220;As fans ourselves at Nuclear Blast, we have long admired the artistry of German progressive death metal masters  Obscura. We were blown away by their musical 4-album-cycle that started  with Cosmogenesis and ended with Diluvium complete with all the band&#8217;s  signature elements plus groundbreaking polyrhythms, dramatic  songwriting, and jaw-dropping virtuosity! We knew that Obscura has the  potential to become one of the leading forces in progressive death metal  worldwide, so when the opportunity came to work with them, there was no  room for second thoughts. We at Nuclear Blast are very curious to see  where Obscura&#8217;s musical journey beyond Diluvium will bring them. If you  are a fan of progressive metal, you should definitely check out this  band!&#8221; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today, Nuclear Blast is pleased to announce the signing of Germany&#8217;s finest progressive death metal&#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-77571","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/77571","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=77571"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/77571\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":77573,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/77571\/revisions\/77573"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=77571"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=77571"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=77571"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
