Let's look at all the musicians Steffen has scared away and why: - Christian Muenzner: Treated him the same way Muhammed Suicmez did. - Jeroen Paul Thesseling: The first time Jeroen didn't want to tour anymore, the second time Jeroen ostensibly got tired of Steffen's drama queen behavior. - Hannes Grossmann: Was a control freak to the point where Hannes had to release an entire solo album just to get his ideas for Obscura out there at all (The Radial Covenant is literally just "Fine, I'll make my own Obscura album with blackjack and hookers!"). - Fountainhead: Got mad at him for playing fretless guitar on rhythm guitar recordings, tried to discredit his contributions to the album, actively copyright strikes Tom's videos every time he tries to upload an Obscura playthrough from Akroasis - Linus Klausenitzer, Sebastian Lanser, and Rafael Trujillo: Rafael was once asked about Steffen on an Instagram Q&A and said something to the effect of "I'm not into bad vibes." - David Diepold: Ostensibly the same reason as Jeroen - ...and now Alex Weber: Stole his bassline for an incredibly sub-par song with the worst mix Studio Fredman has ever shat out.
Sebastian was also asked to rejoin after leaving for tours, glad he didn't. There's a lot of uncovered stuff but yeah, it's fair to say the common issue is Steffen's treatment of his bandmembers as well as not wanting to improve himself, forcing the band to make him look good instead of actually practicing new material. Wonder why some of the Diluvium songs were never played live? There's your answer
I met Steffen at a gig and he was rude and dismissive, acted like he didn't give a fuck about the fans. Also, if he stole the music for Evenfall it really wasn't worth it. The song is bland as hell and not remotely up to the standard of what Obscura were doing on Diluvium, for instance.
Steffen, you've lost Muenzner, Fountainhead, Trujilio, Lanser, Grossmann, Diepold, and how can we forget Thesseling. You have turned Obscura into the Steffen project. Fountainhead can't even have his Obscura playthroughs on TH-cam without you copystriking them into oblivion. And now there's sections from other bands being stolen too. Amazing stuff RIP Obscura, how the mighty have fallen
Sounds similar to The Faceless. Bands with an egomaniac at the helm and a giant revolving door of musicians that eventually get tired of the bullsh*t and leave.
The bass riffs were written by Alex Weber and used without his permission. Stealing riffs from past members is so ridiculous, especially when you have perfectly capable musicians working with you. Steffen strikes again I guess. Never giving another penny to this band.
Tranquilo es un riff que quedará en el olvido, nada relevante, y como tú dices la banda tiene más que ofrecer que ese plagio, en mi opinión la canción es aburrida y seguramente quedará en el olvido. Nunca será un himno
God this was a dull listen. Ballsy as hell to kick it off by stealing Alex’s bass line. Reminds me of how Steffen fucked Tom over with Akróasis. It really shows you where the talent has been in each Obscura lineup
It's only a shame that when it happened almost a decade ago, it didn't get any attention and Tom had to just deal with it alone. If I were him, I'd be absolutely devastated. It's good that it doesn't look like it will go unnoticed again, but it won't bring justice for what has happened in the past.
Steffen thinks he is Obscura, but Obscura is other great musicians that left the band, and many more will leave again. How could you lose Hannes Grossmann that composed SO MUCH for Cosmogenesisn and Omnivium? How could you lose guitar virtuoso Christian Münzner that is so obsessed with incredible solos and complex riffs? How could you lose Paul Thesseling - a masterful bass player with truly unique style and mesmerizing sound? And that wasn't enough! Steffen betrayed amazing guitarist and composer Tom Geldschläger that made so much for "Akroasis". And Steffen even managed to loose the absolutely incredible trio of musicians: Rafael Trujillo, Sebastian Lanser and Linus Klausenitzer - these guys are the reason that "Diluvium" is a pure masterpiece. What the hell? I'm sick of Steffen so much.
This is the kind of comment I was hoping to start seeing. This is not the single that kills this band for me. What killed the favourite band of my late teens/early 20's that Obscura undeniably was, is when I learnt that they hired an absolute genius of a guitarist only to let him contribute a huge portion of creative work on Akroasis and let him go without paying a dime or crediting him and letting the world know how amazing of a musician he is. Every single person involved in the project has more talent in the dirt under their fingernails than I can ever hope to have, and seeing them get screwed this badly is a nightmare fuel.
Alex Weber just came out with proof Steffen is using his ideas to create this song and this album was rushed! May be a reason why these two singles are different from the rest of the obscura discography
It's not the first time he's accused of doing that. Hope it will be the last time, but that won't make up for the damage. Let's hope people will give more attention and support to the actual amazing musicians that contributed to this band's success.
Steffen is a jerk. He was never Obscura. The musicians he played with, who came up with the albums and recorded them, they were Obscura. Steffen exploited the musicians, and whenever someone became inconvenient for him, he got rid of them. Gabe Seeber says "I'm still trying to get paid from the tour last March".... very sad!
Let us extend our support to Rafael Trujillo, Sebastian Lanser, Linuz Klauzenitser from the band Obsidious, as well as Christian Münzner from the bands Retromorphosis and Eschaton. We must not tolerate thievery.
Not only is this a huge downgrade in terms of everything that they’ve ever put out, but now it’s been revealed that Steffen stole Alex Webber’s bass lines before he left the band last year. Steffen is an absolute scumbag of a person and it’s no wonder nobody wants to stay in this band.
They had a party in 2016 with Akroasis though. Even if Steffen didn't want to credit Tom Fountainhead. No Münzner, Grossmann, Fountainhead, Klausenitzer, and Trujillo - no Obscura.
Very nice from Steffen to use the intro bass riff Alex Weber (former bassist) wrote without crediting him or his permission. He and other band members who left were also told and got written confirmation that their riffs and parts they wrote will not be used on this album
For me, even the last album sounded terrible. The guitar is all fuzzy. Once the guitar kicks in, the bass gets lost in the mix. After Diluvium the mix has become terrible. Just compare this to cosmogenesis, this sounds like someone drove a truck over the mix.
True, as a big fan of Obscura I think the worst song on Cosmogenesis is miles better than this song, at least the album artwork is very cool so I don't feel too disappointed hha
Oof. I dug the first single, not digging this really. I don’t care that it’s slow, slow can be good. It’s just repetitive and uninteresting. It feels like it’s building towards a moment that never comes. Hope this is the only track on the album that takes this direction.
Heard there have been significant lineup changes. Honestly I don’t mind bands shaking things up especially when they already have a bunch of albums in the same style
Another album to make me appreciate Cosmogenesis more than ever. They should get some tips from job for a cowboy, when it comes to staying consistent and production
Obscura is (was) one of my favorite band and wanted to see them first time live next month, but I won't. Can't support a stealer and a tyrant. Good luck to the new ex-members.
At this point we shouldn’t even care if this song is good, bad, blatant or whatever. The latest events of plagiarism have just transformed the whole situation into a shitstorm. Justice to all the past musicians who apparently made Obscura the great band it was.
Steffen stole almost the whole album from Tom Geldshläger, but did Tom get royalties? He's just mentioned as a co-writer in one track, so I don't think so.
Okay, despite all the shit happening right now, I really want to pour one out for Kevin, Robin and James, who were likely given the Material by Steffen and probably did not know about this shitshow. The Bassline is sick and Robin does it justice, the sound is great. A shame, it was not Obscuras to use.
Hmhm, things are finally falling into place the only way they could. Those who were onto S.K to begin with are getting the recognition they´re owed. Though it´s time for big sloppy "Told ya.", I´ll resort to restraint.
total letdown. easy the worst obscura single i’ve heard. my expectations for the new album are getting lower and lower. steffen should get some new shredding guitarist if he can’t come up with more than this watered down melo death stuff.
there's only one problem here - the vocals, it is not the kind you could sing along to (as strange as it may sound, but yes, I can sing along to death or cannibals in The Bleeding), so there's a lot of them which makes the track very heavy
Not only is there blatant plagiarism but it doesn't even sound like Obscura one bit! This is embarrassing even for Steffen's standards, thankfully they still have an amazing back catalog because there's no way he's gonna carry this band himself if his band mates keep leaving due to acrimonious circumstances.
man Obscura had one thing: being the ones that were leading Tech Death because of their hard skin and work (in my perspective). This throws a lot to the ground. I mean, you couldn't keep your word, and do your job by yourself, without stealing.
Cosmogenesis had lots of Death and Cynic riffing as well. Akroasis was mostly done by Klausenitzer and Fountainhead anyway. Muenzner also corrected a lot of Steffen's solos.
I am not remotely an Obscura or this style of modern prog/tek death, but why did he release 2 songs that sound like really shitty melodeath, he sounds like Tomas from At the Gates with a cold.
generell mag ich die Band . es waren bis jetzt nur absolute Hammer-Musiker dabei. Vielleicht ein bisschen komisch , wenn wieder mal die komplette Band ausgetauscht wird. Der Song ist auch gut. zumindest gefällt er mir. was allerdings gar nicht geht, ist, dass man tatsächlich geistiges Eigentum stiehlt. Das macht man einfach nicht. vorallem nicht, wenn man solche erstklassigen Musiker um sich hat. sowas ist ein No-Go und wird für mich immer einen faden Beigeschmack haben...
"Steffen: I need a way to make my music memorable Alex Weber's stolen bass riffs Steffen: Eureka! No one will ever know" Like no one will ever know lmao
They've really downgraded on the muscianship, huh? The guitar lead work is abysmal these last two singles. Also, garbage mix. Easily the worst Obscura single ever. I think this album is about to massively flop.....
Steffen the thief. This is very disappointing, i have completely lost the interest in this band. True Obscura for me is “Diluvium” and “Akroasis” and it started going downhill since “A Valediction”.
Let's look at all the musicians Steffen has scared away and why:
- Christian Muenzner: Treated him the same way Muhammed Suicmez did.
- Jeroen Paul Thesseling: The first time Jeroen didn't want to tour anymore, the second time Jeroen ostensibly got tired of Steffen's drama queen behavior.
- Hannes Grossmann: Was a control freak to the point where Hannes had to release an entire solo album just to get his ideas for Obscura out there at all (The Radial Covenant is literally just "Fine, I'll make my own Obscura album with blackjack and hookers!").
- Fountainhead: Got mad at him for playing fretless guitar on rhythm guitar recordings, tried to discredit his contributions to the album, actively copyright strikes Tom's videos every time he tries to upload an Obscura playthrough from Akroasis
- Linus Klausenitzer, Sebastian Lanser, and Rafael Trujillo: Rafael was once asked about Steffen on an Instagram Q&A and said something to the effect of "I'm not into bad vibes."
- David Diepold: Ostensibly the same reason as Jeroen
- ...and now Alex Weber: Stole his bassline for an incredibly sub-par song with the worst mix Studio Fredman has ever shat out.
So literally every member

Bring back Grossman, Munzner & Thesseling.. 😤
They will never play with that narcissist again. Why do you think more guys go in and out of the band than a brothel?
