THULCANDRA (OBSCURA) Streams "As I Walk Through The Gateway," Announces New Album

All hail Steffen Kummerer.

Thulcandra, the band fronted by Obscura's Steffen Kummerer, will release their new record Hail The Abyss on May 19 and is now streaming the single "As I Walk Through The Gateway."

"'As I Walk Through The Gateway' turned into a catchy, relentless and melodic exercise of black & death metal that blends the strengths of the band in a unique form. Catch the band on their first North American tour alongside Fleshgod Apocalypse, Obscura and Wolfheart to feel the blistering power behind this composition in a live setting."

Hail The Abyss was produced by Dan Swanö (Dissection, Opeth, Katatonia) and features a cover by Lochner.

"With Hail The Abyss, we just count the 5th album within 20 years of Thulcandra," Kummerer continues. "A banger, and a diverse record that shows a unique blend of black and death metal, combined with classic heavy metal twin guitars. The album turned out excellent and Dan Swanö delivered a splendid mix – raw, natural and showcasing each individual musician on the record. Hail The Abyss undoubtedly turned into a highlight of our long lasting career."
