OBSCURA: Video Interview Available

February 20, 2009

Holland's FaceCulture recently conducted an interview with guitarist Christian Muenzner of German death metallers OBSCURA. Watch the chat below.

"Cosmogenesis", the second full-length album from OBSCURA, was released in the U.S. on February 17 via Relapse Records (March 2 internationally). The CD features guest appearances from Ron Jarzombek (WATCHTOWER, SPASTIC INK, BLOTTED SCIENCE) and Tymon Kruidenier (CYNIC, EXIVIOUS). "The new album sounds very intense and brutal", the band says in a statement.

OBSCURA was founded in 2002 by guitarist/vocalist Steffen Kummerer. After several lineup changes, Kummerer enlisted a new team of virtuoso musicians. In late 2007, OBSCURA added drummer Hannes Grossmann (ex-NECROPHAGIST) and fretless bassist Jeroen Paul Thesseling (ex-PESTILENCE) as new permanent members. The group's latest addition, Christian Muenzner (ex-NECROPHAGIST),came into the ranks last year.
