NAILED TO OBSCURITY Release Live Performance Video For ‘The Aberrant Host’ Track
September 13th, 2019

Esens, Germany-based melodic death / doom metal group Nailed To Obscurity have released an official live performance video for the track ‘The Aberrant Host’, which can be viewed below.

The band stated: “Our shows in support of Black Frost have been nothing but awesome. The shared atmosphere between the band and audience at the shows was really special – no matter the place or festival nor the time of day. The live video for ‘The Aberrant Host’ provides a little insight of what people can expect from us. The song itself creates the image of the destructive or even corrosive behavior of a person that destroys the life of another one without realizing that this act affects its own existence, too.”

Nailed To Obscurity issued fourth full-length studio album Black Frost on January 11th, 2019 through Nuclear Blast Records.

The band commented: “Frequently, we carry frustration, pain, fear and rage with us until it’s too late. Like black frost that builds up weightily on the mast and the ropes of a ship, able to cause it to capsize, we burden ourselves. These suppressed emotions are the focus of Black Frost, which for us is the next logical step after King Delusion. While the new songs feature our distinctive touches, they are also a lot more open and multifaceted than ever before.”

A two-part track-by-track breakdown video for the album can also be viewed below.

Black Frost was recorded at Woodshed Studio near Landshut, Germany with producer V. Santura.

Cover artwork duties fell to Santiago Caruso, once again. “Through the ages, the experience of the organic has outspread a substance frozen by the fear of uncertainty: the order of the sight succeeded to mute the mystery of the organism with a web of cold signs within the limits of the body, covering the shape of our true selves under the petrified whisper of a black frost,” explained Caruso. “Now, we are in need of crying out a sharp thunder, a burning poem to melt it down.”

The track listing is as follows;

01. ‘Black Frost’
02. ‘Tears Of The Eyeless’
03. ‘The Aberrant Host’
04. ‘Feardom’
05. ‘Cipher’
06. ‘Resonance’
07. ‘Road To Perdition’

Nailed To Obscurity’s line-up is as follows;

Raimund Ennenga (vocals)
Jan-Ole Lamberti (guitars)
Volker Dieken (guitars)
Carsten Schorn (bass)
Jann Hillrichs (drums)

Music videos were filmed for the title track and the song ‘Tears Of The Eyeless’, which can also be viewed below.

Third studio record King Delusion was released in February 2017 via Apostasy Records.
