Obake return with third album with 'Draugr', which signals both a return to the origins of the band and a purification of its sound. 'Draugr' is a term of Indoeuropean origin which means 'Creature returning from the dead'. The compactness and formal cohesion of band and release name reflect the newly found balance in the band, now featuring their live drummer Jacopo Pierazzuoli (of Morkobot and Kings Of Fire fame), Colin Edwin on electric bass (member of Metallic Taste Of Blood with Eraldo Bernocchi and of o.R.k. with Lorenzo Esposito Fornasari), Lorenzo Esposito Fornasari on guitars and voice and Eraldo Bernocchi on guitars. The multiplicity of collaborations between the members of Obake have enabled them to develop a compact and unique sound that is as extreme (in its doom and grindcore roots) as it is borderless (in depth explorations of ambient music accompanied by colorings of jazz , progressive rock and noise). Features a remix by renowned British breakcore artist Leon Switch. (on the CD and as DL with the LP).
