“As Darkness Falls”, the new album from The Obsidian Resurrection, is a brutal, energetic
release that encapsulates the early beginnings of the bands musical career from twenty-five
years ago up to now. A collection of songs reimagined from their 2003 demo, “Enslaved By
Nightmares”, all reworked and given new life alongside tons of brand new material to complete
the album that began it’s journey for them over two decades ago. The Obsidian Resurrection
returns from their arduous journey with their new single, “Prophecy’s Will” off their upcoming
debut album, “As Darkness Falls” to help set the stage for the albums upcoming January 10th
release, and delivers a vicious attack on your senses.
After a long period of silence after the bands’ untimely breakup, The Obsidian Resurrection
returns to finish what they started so long ago. This album’s collection of songs are a reflection
of not only their musicianship and dedication to their craft, but also highlights their willingness to
see things through to fruition. Exploring dark themes such as mental health, sin, dark magic, self
destruction, and a world at war, “As Darkness Falls” paints a haunting picture across it’s
chilling, emotional landscape that will leave you wanting to dive deeper into the albums
experience with each consecutive listen.
“As Darkness Falls” journey harkens to the bands early Death metal and Thrash metal roots
from the glory days of bands such as Morbid Angel, Suffocation and Hypocrisy. Their music
delivers the thrashy grooves from other influences such as early Megadeth, Metallica and
Sepultura, but ties it all together in a unique package with orchestral influences from the early
symphonic Black metal scene with sounds the likes of Dimmu Borgir, Emperor and even
Cradle Of Filth, while bringing it all together with their own unique sound and styling. The
Obsidian Resurrection has had their fair share of ups and downs over so many years with this
music, from line up changes, to literal acts of God halting production on this album(lightning
causing hard drives to render it defective is just one example), The Obsidian Resurrection has
pushed through and persevered ‘til the end and have finally unleashed their music upon the
masses.
“As Darkness Falls” is available for pre-order now on their Bandcamp and grants you early
access to the albums first single, “Prophecy’s Will”.
