Background information über 'Citadel'

Ne Obliviscaris delivers another breathtaking journey through progressive extremity with "Citadel", their sophomore full-length that solidifies their position as one of metal's most ambitious and technically proficient acts. The Australian sextet weaves together brutal death metal passages with soaring violin melodies and clean vocal harmonies, creating an epic tapestry that spans nearly an hour of intricate compositions. The album's two massive multi-part suites, "Painters Of The Tempest" and "Devour Me, Colossus", showcase the band's ability to seamlessly blend aggression with beauty, while the standalone track "Pyrrhic" provides a perfect bridge between these monumental pieces.

What sets "Citadel" apart is Ne Obliviscaris' fearless approach to songwriting, refusing to be confined by traditional metal structures. The violin work by Tim Charles adds an orchestral dimension that elevates the material beyond typical progressive metal territory, while the dual vocal approach of Xenoyr's harsh growls and Dan Presland's clean singing creates dynamic contrasts that keep listeners engaged throughout each extended composition. The production captures every nuance of their complex arrangements, from the thunderous bass lines to the delicate string passages that dance between crushing riffs.

For fans of: Opeth, Emperor, Wintersun, Fleshgod Apocalypse and Septicflesh
