OBSKURIA

Bio:

Obskuria is hungry for ultimate satisfaction; feat. members of La Ira De Dios and Dragonwyck they..re best described as burning-heavy-psychedelic tone poetry, the roots of those “symphonic/orchestrated” poems go back to the early 19th century, when music was intended to inspire listeners and to consider images or moods, not to focus on following traditional patterns –free form improvisation! All 9 songs, except a Slayer cover of “Black Magic” (transformed into 60s garage-twist), were cut from instrumental one-take jams; no headphones and all performers incl. amps in one room … to feel the unfiltered natural vibes of the magical float, to get inspired in marching to the eternal outer-space-plateau as ONE unit… it..s the culmination of violent but also floating rocksound with truely authentic hard-driven 70s fuzz/space guitar overkills and spheric Hammond Organ layers. Finally two fabulous guest singers (male/female) added super-catchy soulful, haunted and atmospheric vocals. The debut album “Discovery of Obskuria”, got lots fabulous and creative reviews in 2008 for their mostly excessive long instrumental space–kraut excursions - NOW the 5 Obskurians speeded-up most of their studio-performance with the focus to get more steady hypnotic song orientated (die)-hard-rock-tunes; which ended after cutting them into 3,5 to 5 min format, except the 13 min title track, a multi-climax, which epically expresses thee “farewell to the American dream … drifting in the burning sea of green”! Obskuria is inspired by 70s Krautrock, Black Sabbath, Doors, Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Jefferson Airplane, Brainticket, Joe Meek, Spaghetti Western and Slayer. This second album by the intercontinental quintet (Peru, US & Germany) may be seen as a soundtrack-concept-album to express in each song a different scene with an “abundant” variety of raw energetic beauty plus revolutionary spirit. On low volume it feels like an easy listening album, turning it up … it could cause unexpected mind-expansions leading into addiction … not many “modern” rock albums have the potential to bring new outstanding listening dimensions to the true music maniacs and addicts …Obskuria does! “A new decade of purely emotional, euphoric rock..n..roll has begun to take you back to those days when music still was music!” World In Sound (JAN-2010)!
