OBSCURA Share New Single "The Monist" via Metal Sucks

Progressive/technical death metal masterminds OBSCURA have revealed a third new track from their highly anticipated forthcoming full-length Akroasis! "The Monist" has premiered via MetalSucks.net, and can be streamed HERE.

Another new single from Akróasis, "Sermon Of The Seven Suns", recently premiered via Loudwire - stream it now AT THIS LOCATION.

You can also watch the first music video from Akróasis for the album's title track via the Relapse Records YouTube Channel HERE. 

It has been five years since the release of OBSCURA's universally acclaimed album Omnivium. Now the progressive metal masters return with their strongest and most dynamic release to date. The aptly named Akróasis (Greek for "hearing" or "listening") draws on all the various elements of OBSCURA'ssignature sound and combines those qualities into a cohesive and mind-blowing whole.

Produced by the band and V. Santura (Triptykon, Pestilence), Akróasis 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, Akróasis will undoubtedly breathe new life into death metal, progressive metal and beyond.

Akróasis will be released February 5, 2016 via Relapse Records.  The album will be available in CD, 2xLP and Digital download.  Physical pre-orders for Akróasis are available HERE and digital pre-orders can be found HERE.

More About OBSCURA:

Founded in 2002 by guitarist/vocalist Steffen Kummerer, German progressive death metal band OBSCURA
caused a stir when they - out of nowhere - toured as support for the
legendary Suffocation on the band's European tour in 2006 and
independently released their debut album Retribution that
same year. From its very beginnings, the band (named after Gorguts'
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.
