International press quotes on �OMNIVIUM�:

 

�Bizarre background choirs, the most exciting bass work in the entire genre, and many virtuoso arrangements with clean guitars - you will be able to discover something new and exciting on this album for many years to come.�

LEGACY

 

Conformism, mediocrity and lack of ambition: just some of the notions OBSCURA shatters to pieces with this classic in the making�

NOISE

 

�An album on which musicians shine collectively, as if Dream Theater turned to Extreme Metal"

METAL OBS

 

"All releases within this subgenre - and for the instrumental track "A Trancendental Serenade" it's the entire Prog-Metal-World - will have to compete with this album, even the so-called classic albums. Supernatural!�

ROCK HARD

 

�Superlatives fall short to define a sizzling piece of metal such as this!�

ROCK TRIBUNE

 

�Obscura have absolutely nailed it�their mastery of tempos and moods marks them out as among extremity�s smartest.�

TERRORIZER

 

�Once again Obscura truly blasts your mind. Without a doubt �Omnivium� brings us all we have hoped for.�

HARD ROCK
