Israeli Extreme Progressive Metal band Obsidian Tide to release their second full-lenght album titled “The Grand Crescendo” on September 29, 2023.
Watch the official video teaser through the YouTube player below:
the band states on their official facebook page:
“We are thrilled to announce the release of our second album, The Grand Crescendo, on SEPTEMBER 29th!
This album has been about five years in the making, as the writing started even before we released our previous album. The time for our blue baby is almost here, and we’re extremely proud of how it turned out with the exquisite mixing and mastering of Grant McFarland and Carson Slovak of Atrium Audio (Rivers of Nihil, Black Crown Initiate).
We believe The Grand Crescendo brought out the best of us in these challenging times, and it turned out to be a beautiful melding pot of different genres, sounds and other inspirations. It shifts between gentle verses and aggressive riffs, dark lullabies and epic solos – the only way we know. Each song in The Grand Crescendo tells its own unique story, expressing a variety of personal experiences, emotions and concepts crafted carefully over the past five years.“
