THE OBSIDIAN RESURRECTION
has released single
‘Edge Of Sanity’
The Obsidian Resurrection plunges listeners into a haunting, apocalyptic soundscape with ‘Edge of Sanity‘, a harrowing descent into a world consumed by death and despair.
The lyrics paint a stark picture of an earth swallowed by darkness, where the remnants of innocence are scattered like broken fragments of a lost past.
From the mournful cries of a dying sun to the creeping embrace of shadows, the song captures the final moments of a world on the brink of annihilation.
The vivid imagery of ‘limb after limb, the lands tainted by the remains of the innocent‘ and ‘a human jigsaw puzzle‘ evokes a grotesque yet poetic portrayal of destruction, mirroring the fragile line between reality and madness.
As the protagonist wanders through the wasteland, searching for salvation in a graveyard of the fallen, ‘Edge of Sanity‘ asks a chilling question:
is this the end of the world, or merely a descent into personal insanity?
With its bleak yet powerful lyricism, the song stands as an anthem for those who dare to stare into the abyss – and find it staring back.

‘As Darkness Falls‘, the new album from The Obsidian Resurrection, is a brutal, energetic release that encapsulates the early beginnings of the bands musical career from twenty-five years ago up to now.
A collection of songs reimagined from their 2003 demo, ‘Enslaved By Nightmares‘, all reworked and given new life alongside tons of brand new material to complete the album that began it’s journey for them over two decades ago.
The Obsidian Resurrection returns from their arduous journey with their new single, ‘Prophecy’s Will‘ off their upcoming debut album, ‘As Darkness Falls‘ to help set the stage for the albums upcoming January 10th (2025) release, and delivers a vicious attack on your senses.
After a long period of silence after the bands’ untimely breakup, The Obsidian Resurrection returns to finish what they started so long ago.
This album’s collection of songs are a reflection of not only their musicianship and dedication to their craft, but also highlights their willingness to see things through to fruition.
Exploring dark themes such as mental health, sin, dark magic, self destruction, and a world at war, ‘As Darkness Falls‘ paints a haunting picture across it’schilling, emotional landscape that will leave you wanting to dive deeper into the albums experience with each consecutive listen.
‘As Darkness Falls‘ journey harkens to the bands early Death metal and Thrash metal roots from the glory days of bands such as Morbid Angel, Suffocation and Hypocrisy.
Their music delivers the thrashy grooves from other influences such as early Megadeth, Metallica and Sepultura, but ties it all together in a unique package with orchestral influences from the early symphonic Black metal scene with sounds the likes of Dimmu Borgir, Emperor and even Cradle Of Filth, while bringing it all together with their own unique sound and styling.
The Obsidian Resurrection has had their fair share of ups and downs over so many years with this music, from line up changes, to literal acts of God halting production on this album (lightning causing hard drives to render it defective is just one example), The Obsidian Resurrection has pushed through and persevered ‘til the end and have finally unleashed their music upon the masses.
