This wouldn't be Prog Metal Mania without some lovely Tech Death, wouldn't it? ;-)

OBSIDIOUS

Back in 2022, the international powerhouse OBSIDIOUS took the Extreme Metal scene by storm with their wonderfully intricate and musically-accomplished debut, "Iconic". Coming along highly technical yet accessible, the album breathes intensity but expands upon it with mellifluent dexterity.  

Named after black volcanic glass, the group’s moniker exudes something dark, of fiery origin, and metaphorically offers a nearly limitless platform for expression and advancement, which is perfectly transformed through their music. From Trujillo’s wickedly clever riffs and Lanser’s artful drumming to Klausenitzer’s superb counterpoint, the songs brim with cool calculation and aggressive spontaneity. Lyrically, Perera tackles human-relatable topics throughout "Iconic", and while his peers abstractly traverse the vagaries of the universe, the singer absolutely hits home with his mind blowing vocal performance.

Don't miss the chance to catch them live - It's gonna be a blast!
