Ne Obliviscaris, the legendary Melbourne outfit, now in their 20th year have just unleashed their fourth full-length album, Exul, and the response has been nothing short of extraordinary. Critics from far and wide have heralded it as a contender for “album of the year,” showering it with the highest praise imaginable. Exul has achieved unparalleled success, surpassing any previous release from the band. Onstage, their trademark fusion of intensity and beauty colliding with thunderous riffs and bone-crushing drums takes on a life of its own. The interplay between haunting clean vocals and ferocious growls, accompanied by the haunting melodies of violins, is a testament to their refined composition skills.
Ne Obliviscaris have not played a show on home soil since 2019. Their long absence has created incredible anticipation among their Australian fanbase who in the past were always treated to a tour every year. Now, having recently returned from their mesmerising performances in Europe, where they once again left their legions in awe, Ne Obliviscaris is back and ready to reward their patient fans. The wait is over!
Such is the enduring success and widespread acclaim of Ne Obliviscaris that their upcoming tour necessitates a significant shift to larger venues including a performance at Melbourne’s historic The Forum. A historic moment for the band and a testament to the indelible mark they have left on the progressive metal landscape in this country. Ne Obliviscaris are definitely conquering new heights on this monumental tour!
