With A Sonication, Germany-based metal band OBSCURA launch the second of their trilogy concept, set to be released on February 7, 2025 via Nuclear Blast. The group’s second (seventh overall) album for Nuclear Blast pivots on many fronts. Advanced, elegant, and yet refreshing, A Sonication sums up past endeavours effortlessly as it gazes with purpose and conviction into the future.
OBSCURA are fan-renowned and critically acclaimed for challenging and then expanding upon norms. From Retribution (2004) through A Valediction (2021), the band flourished and made significant progress in a musical genre unprepared for a creative shot of German invention. A Sonication spearheads OBSCURA into a new era of extreme metal.
Check out the video for the first single, Silver Linings. The opening track of the album is a powerful and melodic song, offering a glimpse into the next chapter of OBSCURA´s ever-evolving musical journey.
