Obvurt announce debut album ‘Triumph Beyond Adversity’

OBVURT have announced a new album!

Titled Triumph Beyond Adversity, the upcoming album from the Canadian technical death metal trio is their debut full-length record and is scheduled to be released in December this year, via Unique Leader Records.

The band name, an amalgamation of the words obvert (to oppose) and hurt (to wound), was created in 2020 as a solo project by Philippe Drouin [ex-UNBREAKABLE HATRED] and remains a compelling lesson in human spirit and perseverance. After being involved in a car accident in 2016, Drouin found himself unable to play guitar, as he could no longer pick due to a severe injury to his right hand. Rather than abandoning the instrument he’d been playing for 15 years, Drouin taught himself to play left-handed, it took three years and an estimated 7,000 hours of practice, under the tutelage of famously ambidextrous shredder, guitar tutor Michael Angelo Batio.

Alongside the announcement of the debut album, the band have released a new music video for a new song lifted from the upcoming debut full-length; Invisible Enemy.
