just ordered it, cant wait... it has pre-production (demo, im assuming, not just pre-mixing) tracks from obscura! *drool* this should hold me over till their new one, which they are supposedly working on.. good news
?! Where did you hear that they are working on a new one?? I haven't heard any news since the loss of their drummer.
i read it on a bbs, where a guy said he emailed the label and asked about their progress. They said they were releasing this demo anthology and working on new material... 2004 release planned or something. Also I read they would be getting a session drummer when the time came. Well, I hope the album is good, but personally i know that what made Obscura so great was, in part, the contribution second guitarist Steeve Hurdle.. the guy was a madman...
Oh yeah, how is the Gorguts Demo Anthology if you already got it? Is the quality of the sound crappy?
yeah, its crappy sound quality.. its more for studying the genius behind the obscura songs.. hehe. Surprisingly they are pretty cogent and formed in 95-96. Its all pretty demo/rehearsal quality though What i really want to get is Steeve Hurdle's band before gorguts, purulence. They had a demo, a single, and a split cd. Someday ill find it hehe
I've liked From Wisdom to Hate for a while now, but I could never get into Obscura. Now I've finally started to love it for the crazed genius that it is...absolutely insane album.
