More About OBSCURA:

Founded in 2002 by guitarist/vocalist Steffen Kummerer, German progressive death metal band OBSCURA
 caused a stir when they - out of nowhere - toured as support for the 
legendary Suffocation on the band's European tour in 2006 and 
independently released their debut album Retribution that 
same year. From its very beginnings, the band (named after Gorguts' 
inimitable 1993 full-length) demonstrated an uncanny ability for 
blending different forms of technical, cerebral metal into a coherent 
synthesis of death, thrash and black metal merged with progressive 
elements.
