07-12-2022

NE OBLIVISCARIS will be releasing their new full-length ‘Exul’ on March 24, 2023! through Season Of Mist. The band is now sharing the new single “Equus” along with a music video. The video was directed and produced by NE OBLIVISCARIS vocalist Xenoyr.

Watch “Equus” below.

NE OBLIVISCARIS are proud to announce a new European tour, together with PERSEFONE! The trek will kick off their ‘Exul’ EU/UK tour at the Tavastia venue in Helsinki (FI) on May 5 and sees the band traveling throughout 15 countries in the weeks to follow! A full list of confirmed dates and support acts can be found below. 

Regarding the video’s powerful yet sombre message, the band explains: ‘Equus’ is dedicated to the lives lost during the lethal bush fires that scarred Australia in 2019-2020. Alongside the people who died or were affected, many millions, if not billions, of animals were killed or displaced from their natural habitats, the enormity of this is something that will never be forgotten, and should not be ignored. It is also a warning that the world we live in is changing from the damage we as a species have contributed to. Within this video, the dancer represents a scorched Mother Earth, from horror to humanity, ever in tune with the heart and flow of the song (and world), and ultimately aware of the inevitable and ever growing destructive cycle we are in.” Pre-orders for ‘Exul’ are now available HERE.Pre-save the album on streaming services HERE.NE OBLIVISCARIS frontman Tim Charles comments on behalf of the band: “We are so excited to announce not only the first part of our ‘EXUL’ world tour for all our EU/UK Ne Obluminati, but also unveil our new album’s track-list & stunning cover, courtesy of Xen. This album has been 5 long years in the making and we are so incredibly proud of every second of it.  Stay tuned for your first taste in the coming days!
