VELVET THUNDER

OBSCURA recently announced their highly anticipated live album, A Celebration I – Live in North America, which will be released on October 27 ^th via Nuclear Blast Records.

Today, the band presents a stunning live video for the track Emergent Evolution (Live), captured during their electrifying Mexico tour. This video promises to deliver a sensory experience like no other, showcasing the band’s unmatched talent and captivating stage presence.

Steffen Kummerer comments:”Emergent Evolution quickly became the most popular track of our 2018 record Diluvium. The song has been part of our live shows ever since, and combined with a loud and wild audience as in Mexico back in 2022, it’s just pure joy to perform live on stage.”

A Celebration I – Live in North America takes you on a mesmerizing journey through their iconic discography, featuring fan-favorites from albums like Cosmogenesis, Omnivium,Akroasis, Diluvium and the chart-breaking A Valediction.

The album has been mixed & mastered at Studio Fredman by award-winning producer Fredrik Nordström (Arch Enemy, In Flames, At The Gates), in Gothenburg, Sweden, in collaboration with Obscura’s architect Steffen Kummerer. Vincent Grundke, who has been working alongside the band as a videographer and photographer since 2021, provided the visual accompaniments for the record.
