Today it´s finally time to launch the sixth studio album of OBSCURA on Nuclear Blast Records.
As a retrospect and a new beginning at the same time, "A Valediction" has become OBSCURA's most carefree album to date and the band doesn't seem to be running out of creativity anytime soon, which should only accelerate their rise to one of the most important contemporary extreme metal bands.
Truly, there is no band quite like OBSCURA. “A Valediction” proves that persistence, perseverance, and enterprising minds can achieve anything. Welcome to the next level – welcome OBSCURA 2.0!
Listen to the album here or get one of the few remaining copies of the digipak including a signing card, or one of the 2LPs with etching on the d-side and gold foil finish on the album cover: https://bfan.link/Obscura
