With this new project, the ACYLUM gang reveals a new sound entity that bridges morbid harsh elektro with melancholic and mystic orchestrations. Besides the straight and upbeat club tracks like "Waldgeist", the highly danceable "Brothers" and also the title track "Forgotten Time", they offer up more oppressive, bombastic and noir moments on titles like the opening "Violence Needs A Cause", the slow and penetrating "Proud" or yet the superb intricate vocal sample work on "Warrior", the perfect hymn to desolation... Acting like zombies playing haunted tunes in a graveyard, TOTEM OBSCURA awaken the dark spirits for the ultimate dance of the dead! An impressive melange of influences ranging from KIRLIAN CAMERA to HOCICO with the unmatchable ACYLUM touch of darkness.Deluxe carton box edition with an exclusive bonus disc and remixes by bands like JUNKSISTA, DIABOLIC ART, PSY"AVIAH, CYNICAL EXISTENCE, DIFFUZION, etc.Released late November, 2013 on Alfa Matrix.Track Listing CD1:1.
