It is seen as one of the most technical and complex albums within the [[death metal]] genre, consisting of many experimental and [[dissonant]] melodies, and strange rhythms. Supposedly the band originally composed the riffs with objects normally not used as instruments, similar to many [[noise music]] composers. {{Fact|date=February 2007}} ==Track listing== # "Obscura" – 4:04 # "Earthly Love" – 4:04 # "The Carnal State" – 3:08 # "Nostalgia" – 6:10 # "The Art of Sombre Ecstasy" – 4:20 # "Clouded" – 9:32 # "Subtle Body" – 3:23 # "Rapturous Grief" – 5:27 # "La Vie Est Prélude..." – 3:28 # "Illuminatus" – 6:15 # "Faceless Ones" – 3:50 # "Sweet Silence" – 6:45 ==Line Up== [[Luc Lemay]] - Guitars, Vocals<br> Steeve Hurdle - Guitars, Vocals<br> Steve Cloutier - Bass<br> Patrick Robert - Drums<br> [[Category:Gorguts albums]] [[Category:1998 albums]] {{1990s-death-metal-album-stub}} [[sv:Obscura]]
