Our Take
Our Take
OBELYSKKH’s latest album, The Providence, is a sonic journey through the depths of doom metal that will leave you feeling like you’ve been hit by a freight train of riffs. This German powerhouse knows how to craft a punishing sound that combines the heaviness of Black Sabbath with the experimentation of Neurosis.
The band’s knack for creating massive, crushing atmospheres is on full display here, with tracks like "The Ravens" and "The Tower" enveloping you in a swirling maelstrom of distorted guitars and thunderous drums. The vocals, delivered with guttural intensity by Andreas Kohl, add an extra layer of aggression that really drives home the band’s apocalyptic sound.
What really sets OBELYSKKH apart, however, is their willingness to push the boundaries of the genre. Tracks like "Northern Lights" and "The Harbinger" incorporate elements of sludge and post-metal, adding a level of complexity and depth to the music that is truly refreshing. The band’s willingness to experiment pays off in spades, resulting in an album that is as unpredictable as it is heavy.
Overall, The Providence is a triumph for OBELYSKKH, showcasing their immense talent and creativity in the realm of doom metal. If you’re a fan of heavy, atmospheric music that is not afraid to take risks, this album is a must-listen. Just be prepared to have your eardrums obliterated in the process.

About the artist
Obelyskkh
Hailing from Germany, OBELYSKKH are a band that defy categorisation. With a sound that can only be described as a visceral gut-punch of sludge, doom and stoner metal, they have been making waves in the underground scene for years. Led by vocalist F. and guitarist D., OBELYSKKH have been known to deliver live performances that are nothing short of mind-blowing. With a guitar tone that could peel paint off the walls and vocals that sound like they're being dragged out of the depths of hell, their shows are not for the faint of heart. Their latest album, "Hymn To Pan", is a masterpiece of sonic destruction. From the moment the first crushing riff kicks in, you know you're in for a wild ride. The band's ability to seamlessly blend elements of black metal, sludge, and doom into a cohesive whole is nothing short of awe-inspiring. But don't let their heavy sound fool you, OBELYSKKH are a band with a sense of humour as dark as their music. From their tongue-in-cheek song titles to their off-kilter stage banter, they never fail to bring a smile to your face, even as they're pummelling you into submission with their ferocious sound. In a music scene crowded with pretenders, OBELYSKKH stand out as a band that truly walks their own path. With a sound that is as crushing as it is unique, they are a band that defies easy categorisation. Love them or hate them, one thing is for certain – OBELYSKKH are a force to be reckoned with.
