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.
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.
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.

A playthrough of this song with both guitarists would be great...
3:46 is a bueautiful piece of a fretless bass ever
Album of the year contender 👌❤
i love obscura!
One of the best on the album
Goddamn, everything on this album is the best
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.
Thanks for the lyrics my friend
4:29 best moment of the song, the drums gives the chorus a bigger impact ("epic")
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.
My favorite from this fantastic album
2:01 transcendental serenade throwback ❤
Omniveum is good start to finish. But yeah they shred on that one. The solo work is insane.
That drum intro😍
Just amazing
It is ironic that a band named OBSCURA has made everything so clear.
Masterpiece album
I don't usually headbang to bass but when I do, it's usually Obscura :)
ini bukan sekedar album musik tapi juga sebuah ilmu pengetahuan
WoW... What a track, bass line, solo.. Prog Death Metal Power #Obscura \m/
Another excellent treat for my ears!
This is amazingly soothing for me
really nice solo a treat for ears :)
Another sick one dudez
One of my favourites on the album, absolutely love this intro
Gefällt mir am besten auf 'Diluvium'
This is good i like it
A melodia dessa faixa lembra muito uma musica do Keep of Kalessin
Uhh!
There is a riff here that sounds like Alison Hell riff.
🤘🖤🇵🇹
At first I thought this song was kinda boring but it might grow on me
John Bartosiak Every song which feels that at first might grow on you
I was like this at first bit now, this song jas fully fully grown on me 🤣
Annihilator - Alison Hell
Obscura evolving into Thulcandra.
I expect more than this.
Ethereal skies is great so far
why did i get a whole song as an ad
Shits so dumb and annoying
^ Unless it winds up being a song you dig?
