DARKNESS SHALL RISE PRODUCTIONS is proud to present the debut EP of OBSIDIAN SCAPES, self-titled Obsidian Scapes. This two-song 12″ will precede the band’s debut album, Death Chants Echo From Aphotic Void, which is set for release in March 2025.
From the endless fields of obsidian darkness rise eerie hymns, echoing an ancient, long-forgotten apocalypse that slices through the eternal night. OBSIDIAN SCAPES are the embodied nightmare – a deathly veil of cascading riffs, raining down like the lethal erosion of cosmic worlds. Layered with relentless, thunderous drums, and ghostly dirges, their music summons visions of a dying universe.
OBSIDIAN SCAPES’ sounds crawl like molten madness into the depths of the mind, painting aphotic images of shadowy, chthonic cathedrals and titanic monoliths rising against a crumbling horizon. Despair and anguish permeate every note – dirges for a world drowning in the abyss of decay, and tributes to powers lurking beyond human comprehension.
