Technical death metal act Obscura has begun recording the follow-up album to the band's latest release "Cosmogenesis" at Woodshed Studio in southern Germany. Engineer V. Santura will helm the recording. An early 2011 release date is expected with additional album details to be announced soon.

Obscura founder Steffen Kummerer commented on the new album: "We are glad to work with our long-time friend V.Santura once again to record our new album. The new material feels broader in some way as everybody in this band brought many unique ideas to the songwriting and we were able to integrate different elements into our sound. More open chords, more acoustic guitars, more seven string shred-tunes. Remember: more is always more. We are excited to create another album of progressive death metal and to start touring through the whole world in early 2011.”

Cosmogenesis was a pretty solid debut effort, looking forward to seeing what these guys can do this time around.

ES: Actually, "Cosmogenesis" was their second album. Their first was "Retribution," which was recently re-released with bonus tracks.

It's nice that V. Santura of Dark Fortress/Triptykon is going to be working on this album.. wonder if he'll have a guest spot or something.
