German technical/progressive death metal masters Obscura have recently shared a stream of the tune "The Origin Of Primal Expression," the deluxe CD-only bonus track from their brand new record, Akroasis. You will do well to remember that their first new album in five years came out just last month. "The Origin Of Primal Expression" is a stripped down acoustic piece of the album title track.




Guitarist/vocalist Steffen Kummerer commented on the track: "'The Origin of Primal Expression' shows the title track of our new album stripped down to only one acoustic guitar and is meant to give a slight insight behind the scenes of writing an Obscura song. The two main themes show that certain Death vibes are still present and audible within the multi-layered song structures we work with. The bonus tracks on Akroasis are a gesture of gratitude to everyone who purchases physical copies of the record. Music, lyrics and artworks together build an album and create a certain vibe and flair within the songs that is barely comprehensible with a few files stored on a hard disc."



On May 1st, the official bass tablature book of Akroasis will be released. You can pre-order here.
