Australian prog metal master NE OBLIVISCARIS are about to embark on their European trek with IHSAHN and ASTROSAUR. The tour kicks off next Monday, October 29 in Sweden and will end on November 11, in Hungary. A full list of tour dates can be found below.

NE OBLIVISCARIS comment: "IHSAHN, from arguably the most well known black metal band in history, EMPEROR, has given us the opportunity to share his European tour in support his latest solo release, the brilliant, Ámr. We've all been fans of IHSAHN's work for many years now and to support such an iconic artist we've looked up to is an honor and will certainly be a defining moment in not only our careers, but also our lives. Opening will be instrumental Norwegians, ASTROSAUR. If you want prog, melody, metal, and history, be there."

NE OBLIVISCARIS' third album, Urn is bound to be a career defining moment. The Australian extreme prog shooting stars have honed and re-balanced the key elements of their unique sound to a razor sharp musical edge. The dynamic entwining of fierce growls and emotive clean vocals, the contrast between devastating et intricate guitar riffs and thundering drums against an unleashed violin and gorgeous string parts as well as the perfect blending of epic progressive and intense extreme metal forms of expression are all marking a new peak in the steep rise of the band.

Founded in the beautiful Australian coastal city of Melbourne, Victoria in the year 2003, NE OBLIVISCARIS took the inspiration for their name from the proud motto of Clan Campbell based in Argyll, Scotland, which means "forget not". From the start, this collective of exceptional musicians made it clear that they did not intend to follow any trends or walk on well-trodden paths. Their first demo, The Aurora Veil (2007) had a massive impact in the metal underground far beyond the fifth continent and already their debut full-length Portal of I (2012) reached mainstream music press, which praised a unique array of influences and the characteristic virtuoso violin.

NE OBLIVISCARIS immediately climbed remarkably higher on the ladder with sophomore opus Citadel (2014) by adding avant-garde approaches including jazz, flamenco, progressive rock, and many other wide-ranged influences to their solid metal base.

Parallel to their success on a critical level and with an ever-growing host of die-hard fans, the Australians increased their reputation as an excellent live act with extensive touring literally around the globe. The financial base for this was laid by NE OBLIVISCARIS' ground-breaking use of modern day crowd-funding campaigns. This includes an ongoing Patreon membership scheme under the moniker The Ne Obluminati, which is revolutionising the relationship between band and fans by using the ancient concept of patronage in today's democratic setting.

Urn will lift NE OBLIVISCARIS to the next level. Outstanding musicianship meets excellent songwriting and a firework of brilliant ideas. Evening out the scales between extreme and progressive metal, the Aussies carve their own path. Spin Urn on heavy rotation and NE OBLIVISCARIS will take you to a whole new dimension of musical delights.
