OBSCURA - The Seventh Aeon

[@relapserecords]

Germany’s progressive death metal masters OBSCURA complete their long-running, four-album conceptual circle with the release of Diluvium (defined as a great oceanic flood), their most evocative, diverse and vibrant release to date. Recorded with longtime producer V. Santura (Triptykon, Pestilence) at Woodshed Studios in Landshut, Germany, Diluvium is a stunning achievement for the illustrious quartet and a landmark release for progressive metal as a whole. Complete with all the band's signature elements plus groundbreaking polyrhythms, dramatic songwriting, and jaw-dropping virtuosity, OBSCURA raise the bar once again with an album that will go down in the annals of metal history as one of the most astonishing performances the genre has to offer.

[@davidgarcia6796]

A playthrough of this song with both guitarists would be great...

[@davidmoreno9341]

Foul and tainted, putrid in spite Departed, serene, deceived in faith Emanated and ruptured in creed Condemned forever, captured in doom Devoured in oblivion, redeemed in gloom And abandon demise, I stare in eternal despair of yore Perseverant and keen, I endure the curse In boundless spirits, the faith of gods Devoured in oblivion, redeemed in gloom And abandon demise, I stare in eternal despair of yore The seventh aeon elating, the bringer of light enfolding its vigor In a halo of light, I bare as remaining grandeur once more Solo: R. Trujillo / S. Kummerer Shrouded in silence, unhallowed black sermon Condemned forever, captured in doom Foul and tainted, putrid in spite Departed, serene, deceived in faith Devoured in oblivion, redeemed in gloom And abandon demise, I stare in eternal despair of yore The seventh aeon elating, the bringer of light enfolding its vigor In a halo of light, I bare as remaining grandeur no more.

One of the best on the album Goddamn, everything on this album is the best

[@Metalton95]

4:29 best moment of the song, the drums gives the chorus a bigger impact ("epic")

[@lashedandscorned]

My favorite part is (what I think it is) Rafael's solo followed by acoustic + fretless bass followed by Steffen's solo But yes, those toms make that chorus sound 'wider'. Also, hi again lol.

[@MoSweiti666]

Album of the year contender 👌❤

[@erradate6425]

[@oskarnurmi4624]

That drum intro😍

[@badfyrepytweed3374]

Just amazing

[@amitratt]

2:01 transcendental serenade throwback ❤

[@worminator2334]

Omniveum is good start to finish. But yeah they shred on that one. The solo work is insane.

[@chrisseaman5055]

It is ironic that a band named OBSCURA has made everything so clear.

[@svetozor]

I don't usually headbang to bass but when I do, it's usually Obscura :)

[@KafaWorthless]

[@noc6087]

Gefällt mir am besten auf 'Diluvium'

[@pikachusama]

A melodia dessa faixa lembra muito uma musica do Keep of Kalessin

[@Ningunoninadie]

Uhh!

[@fantastic_joe]

There is a riff here that sounds like Alison Hell riff.

[@herminiosimoes6902]

[@John-bb9kd]

At first I thought this song was kinda boring but it might grow on me

[@kaffeine0178]

John Bartosiak Every song which feels that at first might grow on you

[@DEONONFORTUNA87]

[@ojvera76]

Annihilator - Alison Hell

[@happyprime4685]

Obscura evolving into Thulcandra. I expect more than this. Ethereal skies is great so far

[@ijustgotreallystoned638]

[@nicksquires7034]

Shits so dumb and annoying

[@jamespeterson4275]
