Christian is having a total "Return of the King" moment and I'm here for it.
Same here 😆
@@mariovazquez5850 🤟🏻
Didn't Christian say in an interview that he's a power metal guy at heart despite being associated with death metal? I think he's having a blast with this track here.
@@ha-tsuneko yup, but he is undoubtely one of the BEST death metal guitarist. He has been in necrophagist and spawn of possesion, and doing guest solos in fallujah, gorod and a lot more. So yes, he is a power metal guitarist but he is versatile as fuck
@@ha-tsuneko Yeah, Christian loves power metal. You can hear his power metal neoclassical influence from his first solo album, Timewarp. I couldn't get enough of that album.
The best car commercial ever.
And the best part in the video 😂🤘
The cars make them so much American! 🤣.......
🤣
What's on my mind.
Best song to drive over the speed limit to!!🤘🏼🖤🤘🏼😅
This album is really showing the versatility of Obscura: Solaris is a tech death song with 1000 notes per minute, A Valediction is a melodeath catchy song, Devoured Usurper is a Morbid Angel type of song, heavy as hell, and this song is very energetic, fast and even happy sounding, with a power metal influence. I'm hyped to hear the full album, and I hope they don't release any more songs until then so the hype won't fade away.
Kummerer is a genius.
ikr this song reminds me Unleash The Archer
Agree
Yeah 100%, such a dynamic album. This lineup is crazy too.
@@1c3m1lo I get that vibe too, and I love UTA so it works for me 😎
Therapist: "don't worry, happy Obscura doesn't exist, they can't harm you"
Happy Obscura:
Looool 😂😂😂😂
I'm in this meme and i dont like it
It's not happy Obscura, it's Obsura full of SWAG!
Best Carnifex album besides, Until I feel Nothing, and Graveside Confessions
😂😂
Man this is fun it’s the most melodic they’ve been since Cosmogenesis. This gives me Incarnated vibes. Love how they continue to experiment with each album.
Incarnated is one of my favorite songs by and from Obscura.
@@metallibrarycollectionsnew2406 classic Obscura track
Isn't there an extended version of this, where they repeat that last chorus a little more?, damn ..too beautiful to fade out that early.
This song makes me so happy for two reasons
1. I recall Christian mentioning that he really loves power metal despite being mostly known for death metal. It feels good to see him playing the style he loves in one of his most iconic band.
2. Obscura writes a song quite distinct from their usual sound (an awesome one at that) so what makes Obscura Obscura? Idk about others but for me the answer is Jeroen's double stop fretless bass lines.
Yes. He said that in a Thomann video. He said he is actually more of a power metal/80s shred guy. He was sort of "pulled" into Necrophagist, which he did love though. He mentioned that he doesnt really like the generic tech death stuff being put out all the time... Thats why i think he is back in Obscura, making prog/tech death...
Check eternities end , or his solo albums of you havent already!
I highly can recommend Eternitys End :D
@@justin.hombach well i would hope so :P would be weird if you didnt
I never thought I'd get Dragonforce vibes from Obscura, but when that harmonies hit at 4:12 I had to find a lighter just to hold it up while I headbanged
When Hammerfall’s ‘Hearts on Fire’ becomes “Hair on Fire”
Same!
Diepold faces in this are fucking legendary
@@Skepsis710 if you're missing Sebastian, Trujillo, and Linus, they have a new band together called Obsidious. Their album hasn't come out yet, but the singles sound fantastic. Check them out.
@@Skepsis710 yeah i just found it 2 weeks ago. Expecting big things from that band.
@@Skepsis710 I personally think that David is playing exactly what this song needs. Having seen a lot from David I can assure you that he's capable of a lot more if necessary.
That's an awesome addition of David Diebold on the drums. Congrats. Sick song
That little Diepold feature at 1:41 was awesome! Love the overall experimentation so far in this album! Clean vocals fit in well too!
It’s Bjorn ‘Speed’ Strid, from Soilwork, doing clean vocals here
the same from disarmonia mundi!?!?!? AWESOME!!!
Is it?! It doesn't sound like him
@@MastersApprentices oh yes, it does. one of the most distinguishable voices in metal!
@@MastersApprentices Wat? He's pretty much impossible to miss. Nobody really sounds like him.
I don't think it's him, but this voice tone sounds similar to Bjorn on a few notes
Why does that riff at 00:42 only show up there in the song? That riff IS EVERYTHING!! BRING IT BACK!!!
Totally agree.
seriously. I don't play guitar and it sounds like a blast to play.
The cleans just kind of came out of no where
Sick.
Christian's absolutely amazing lead playing is what makes this song.
The most melodic, least dark sound from Obscura. And it's a good thing. Something totally different from the band right after Devoured Usurper.
still waiting for bass solos
Yeah 😔
The new First Fragment should have you covered lol
@@CaptnShred 🍻
I wish he was mixed louder. Ie CosmoGenesis
@@Kahnklingon84, I agree. The bass tone is great.
Christian is absolutely crushing it. So awesome to hear.
I did not expect a mainline german technical death metal band to do this, but im happy they did.
This album is beyond Death Metal
hope they all get along, because this lineup is 🔥🔥
I thought so too until they released this flaming garbage
@@HECKyesGaming lol
at this point these guys are just having fun recording videos, as well as music, and i love every bit of it
The guitar-duo "solo" reminded me of Cacophony. Pretty cool.
Wow that was unlike anything Obscura has released, really good stuff!
Ikr
El final de la cancion tiene un feeling increible!
Definitely the best solos on the album
Bjørn from Soilwork kind of brings this into Scar Symmetry territory. Digging how every song has a very unique character on this album so far, and I'm really liking the genuine surprises I'm finding. All the tracks fit together coherently, but nothing ever really fulfills the same purpose as what came before it. Admittedly, I hope we get to hear a bit more of Steffen's lower vocal range before the album's over, but I suspect I won't be disappointed here. Good stuff.
I was trying to think what this reminded me of! Scar Symmetry! God I miss Scar Symmetry!
@@jeffreydean7556 yessss. Very SS-ish. Still waiting on their Singularity Pt.2 album which feels like it's been delayed into limbo. 😑
@@motopolak I can't think of an album I've waited longer for, lol. The last one was so fucking good.
@@motopolak They recently replied to one of their FB comments saying that the album is recorded, they're just having issues working out a release date with the label.
@@seanbester1465 Well heck, you made my day! Knowing that, I can now wait patiently haha
The most Melodeath Obscura song ever
It's the whole record. Starting to guess what the musical differences were.
@@PhilCreswell No shot. Devoured usurper isn't even close to melodeath and Solaris is more in line with regular tech death.
a valediction is more melodeath imho
Love that bass tone popping out. Hard to achieve in this type of music.
Blinded by fear 😨
Just discovered Obscura this past year by far my new favorite band listening to all albums nonstop for months.🤘🏼 can't wait to the next one already!
I don't normally care for clean singing in death metal, but it works really well here. This song is absolutely amazing, as is the rest of the album. It's some of their most diverse material and probably their best since Cosmogenesis. Christian returning to this band is one of the best things to happen in tech death in a long time.
Confetti .....now that's brutal,
Freakin love Obscura. Just amazing talent. Been a huge fan of their work for many years. Transcendental Serenade, Orbital Elements, Akroasis, An Epilogue To infinity, Emergent Evolution. All next level.
Some At the Gates sounds here!!!!!! Awesome
Beyond the staaaaaars!!!
Some great power metal in this one. Muenzner at work.
Classic cars and metal! My two favourite things in the world in one video 😍 AWESOME
What about bacon?
@@gft1913 that's for the next video
Hearing the eternity’s end in this one.
The very first time I hear anything from this band. Instantly HOOKED!!
Usually I am not to comment but the work on this album deserves all the possible recognition, personally it gives me the impression that it is, to this day, one of their most versatile plates in which the different influences are felt and converge. You can see the work and attention to detail in many songs and each one has a very strong identity. Although Death's philosophy is evident when experimenting in each new work, Oscura this time has expanded beyond its own mold, I like the direction they are taking. One of the most beautifully unexpected releases that has become one of my favorites of 2021. I will see them if they come to my country for this album, they deserve it.
Literally cried at 1:04
One of the most perfect metal songs ever.
🔥🤘🤘🤘🔥
This sounds very swedish. And I'm totally into it. I love swedish Death Metal 🤘🏻
Yeah... germans!
Our most anticipated album to listen to scince years!
Well done guys we really loved this! ☄️
Hey Guys! Watch my cover aproach to the baroque leak from Christian Muenzner!

Where is Sebbie
Legend...David diepold...🤘👽👍
big sunglasses
fast cars
clean vocals
that's it guys, Steffen went full "cool band" mode
Don't get me wrong, I love these guys and I know Steffen for more than 10 years now... but for "full cool band mode" they have to hang the instruments much deeper especially Jeroen ;-)
@@florian_metalgandalf umm no
I have to comment again... 4:12 is one of the most beautiful licks I have listened in a lot of time. Some people will say that shredders doesn't have any feel to play... How wrong they are 🤣, this solo has feeling, technique... All of the members of the band are awesome, but Chris is a "virtuoso". Thanks again for such an amazing song 🤘🤘🤘
That lick is the most Christian Munzner sounding lick out of all Chriatian Munzner licks that sound like Christian Munzner
Those people need to check out "for the love of God." by Steve Vai because he puts in so much feel in that song.
ニューアルバム買いました🤘
素晴らしいアルバム✨
また日本でライブが観たい👍
They doing it all this time round.
This is the most rock'n roll technical death metal song I've listened to.....I love it
Arsis vibes I love it
So amazing I love how ever album has a different type of sound but is still Obscura
First time: Haha Diepold happy face
Tenth time: BEYOND THE SKYYY!!!
i hear harmonized guitar riffs.. i click a like button
It sounds like modern melodic death but it's Obscura!
opening sounds like Gates of Ishtar. very nice
Love this direction. Going for the melodic angle without sacrificing technicality. Its just a great banger.
Those solos the lead guitarist plays sound so perfect it almost sound like midi.
Glam'n'roll Technical Death Metal...who would've thought?
That is a strange and wonderful departure from their usual music. It is a mixure of Obscura, touch of COB, and epic power metal mixed in.
Will this man ever find a lineup he likes and stick with it lol.
hell yeah this is so fresh. glad to see not just Christian back in the band, but that he's still playing guitar (:
that's some sick genre bending
MEEEDLEEEMEEE!!!!
Wohoo
Man those solos are just amazing, I wish they'd showcase they melodic talent more often.
Love the drums
For 5:13 minutes I thought I was back in the early 2000s Gothenburg metal scene!
Damn! Obscure The Gates!! I never remember them being this melodic.
Holy smokes. This might be one of the best Obscura song's I've heard (right next to Prismal Dawn) Awesome track!! Definitely my favorite so far from this 4 singles.
Ayy, another Prismal Dawn fan. That song is out of this world.
At the gates style! 🔥🖤
What a masterpiece of an album !
I didn't expect the song to end that way, but it was greatly done...
Hail Obscura 🤘
It makes me so happy that Christian is back in Obscura. I cannot even explain how happy it's made me! xD
I found this band about a month ago. I wish I had found them way earlier but, better late than never. I'm totally hooked and been listening to all their albums. Such a kick ass band!! 🤘😝🤘
What's your favourite album by them so far? I think it's really hard to choose between the last 4
Best riff of the year
I had no idea Freddie Mercury could blast beat so clean!
November 19 can't come around soon enough.
🧐🤗
02:50 Look at that swag
Well damn. That was fan-fucking-tastic boys.
Power Death Metal 🤘🏻
These guys are ridiculous and amazing. Just as impressive live. 🤘🤘🤘
This song stays in my head for a long time.
Fast cars, fast guitars, fast Metal ! Obscura rules 🤘
We need another song like this those cleans are so dope
Happy Obscura
These guys are harnessing some major At The Gates power here. I love it!
Sounds like Gates of Histar 🤘💀🤘
Yet another excellent song from these dudes. The melody is a great contradiction to the metal - love this. 🤘🤘🙂🙂👍👍
Loving that new obscura sound!
Obscura see the light first time with this nice song. Best song from new album until now.
Solaris
Every single you guys drop is better than the last...CANNOT WAIT for the full album 😍😍
Nooo the song can`t end with a fade out, but what a great track. Beautiful.
This part at the end pricked my ears I thought love the clean vocals.
It's time to "Melo Power Technical Death Metal" 👀🔥
This is the weirdest thing I've ever seen In tech death.
Aliens!!!
great song
Cool song and cars.
Gates of Ishtar!
That was probably the most 80s-ish tech-death I've ever heard AND seen (and I mean it in a positive way) - fast cars, clean singing, anthemic hooks...The only thing missing is a girl on top of one these cars. :D
Lol..
We are in the 21st century. Feminists would cancel them for being "sexist".
You've gotta check out Alkaloid's "Kernel Panic"
@@brunoheleno6312 I love Alkaloid! Both albums are amazing. :D
You know they were considering the girls...😉
So melodic and I love it!!!
You never disappoint me, congratulations!!!
This album will be awesome 🤘🤘🤘
The bass is out of control!
Amazing! Clearly Christian went for some eternity's end stuff here
I'm kinda sad this went into obscura... would love to play those riffs live 😅😂
@@justin.hombach ffs Justin 😂
@@justin.hombach I'm sure there's plenty on "Embers" to satiate that.😉
@@justin.hombach hahahahaha
