The daily look in the mirror shows a reproduction of reality. But what if it is experienced in a completely different way and you slowly lose yourself?

Then, the risk rises to become a victim of “King Delusion”. On the follow-up to their album „Opaque“ (2013) the German five-piece Nailed To Obscurity sends the listener on a journey through emotional abysses, but they also open pondering views into the innermost. They teamed up with producer Victor Santura (Triptykon, Dark Fortress, Noneuclid) in his Woodshed Studio to find the best sound for all facets of their melodic doom death metal. The overall atmosphere is nailed within the artwork of Argentinian artist Santiago Caruso.

For more than ten years, Nailed To Obscurity from Northern Germany have successfully developed their distinctive style, somewhere between melodic death metal and doom with progressive influences. Their underground debut Abyss exhibited these rare first glimmers, but their albums Opaque (2013) and King Delusion (2017) especially showed a real evolution within their sound, allowing the band to take some huge steps. Their melancholic songs never fall short of the necessary brutality, and always create a distinct dynamic which mesmerises the listener who profoundly experiences every note and every word.
