Obvurt release new song ‘Versus’

OBVURT have released a brand new song!

The new song, titled Versus, is taken from the Canadian technical death metal trio’s upcoming debut album, Triumph Beyond Adversity, which is scheduled to be released in December this year.

Listen to Versus here: 

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.

Triumph Beyond Adversity is set for release on December 2nd via Unique Leader Records. Pre-orders are available now and can be purchased here.
