    Really like that there isn't a huge amount of gain in the tone. Still plenty of room for articulate playing and melody

    In my opinion, Obscura is the greatest death metal band of more than the last decade, since they exploded to the face of the world in 2009 with their already all time classic « Cosmogenesis ». Let me explain.
    (i) First of all, they made the ultimate synthesis of the greatest death metal bands in History and all the sub-genres of death metal. Obscura incorporated to “classical old school US death metal” (like Morbid Angel or Suffocation ; listen to Ocean Gateways for example) the “old school technical and progressive death metal" (like Death, Cynic, Atheist, Atrocity or Gorguts) but also the “old school swedish death metal” (like In Flames, Dark Tranquillity, At the Gates....) and, of course, the “modern technical European death metal” (Necrophagist is the model, with 2 ex members who joined Obscura in 2008 : Hannes Grossman and Christian Muenzner ; but also Gorod from France for example or Anata from Sweden). And just for this, just WOW. There are SO MANY influences in their music. They are the representants of all this diverse legacy of death metal. Obscura is, in my opinion, the only band to have such a diversity in the music they made. I can even hear sometimes some old school swedish death/black melodic metal like Dissection, Sacramentum, Vinterland or Unanimated in the riffing.
    (ii) Then, their leader and main composer, Steffen Kummerer, is Chuck Schuldiner direct descendant. The way he sings, the way he writes songs. OMG. Listen to “Incarnated” or “Akroasis”. To me, it just sounds like if Chuck were still alive and making music with Death, following the path of the modern death metal he created with Human in 1991.
    (iii) This guys are making some of the best instrumentals songs I’ve ever heard. Just listen to "Orbital elements" or "The origin of primal expression"… blow-minding.
    (iv) The Obscura members are some of the greatest metal artists. Steffen Kummerer is freaking amazing. On lead guitars, Christian Muenzer is a god, and their last one Rafael Trujillo is now a legend. On drums, Hannes Grossman is probably the best extrem metal drummer currently with Adam Jarvis from Misery Index, Trey Williams from Dying Fetus and Philippe Boucher from Beyond Creation ; and their last one, Sebastian Lanser, is also a fucking beast. On bass, Jeroen Paul Thesseling and Linus Klausenitzer are just genious.
    (v) Their legacy in technical death metal is just amazing. 5 albums, 4 masterpieces (from Cosmogenesis in 2009 to Diluvium in 2018). They are the fathers of bands like Beyond Creation, Rivers of Nihil, etc. Their message has crossed through generations : technical yes, but always at the service of an exceptional artistic and melodic vision. They also democratized “fretless bass” in extreme metal”, wich is amazing.
    (vi) I saw Obscura live a year ago in Metz in France. They are just AWESOME live, one the the greatest death metal band to see live. Their show was amazing.
    That’s why Obscura is the ultimate modern extreme metal band, amongs Revocation, Blood Incantation, Vektor and Ulcerate.

    Consumed in a vortex, beheld the celestial wrath
    With our spirits aligned, we immersed in evenfall
    Engrossed in infinity, congealed in perpetual spleen
    In consciousness remained, the universe's final call
    At the edge of time, a convergent entity
    Erased in blackness, obtained eternal path
    In our shivers sublime, we collapsed in crimson sprawl
    Enthralled in sparkling loss, transcend in eternal gleam
    Annihilation unbound, in maenadic velocity
    Rise, convergent black star, revive from life into decay
    Dissolve in cosmic seas, enthralled to strain the burden
    As an anthem of life and death, as an epitaph of all light
    Our last funeral, redeemed sustaining the vortex
    Drowning down eclectic bliss, we remain relieved in deliverance

      Looks like a two notes torpedo captor which helps to record a hot signal coming out of the amp head into something that can be recorded into a computer at line level. It also has a built in speaker simulator that can be used. If you record without the speaker sim, you would need an IR applied to the recording afterwards to make it sound good.
