ERIE, PA. -- Requiem For Oblivion, a band known for their progressive, ambient interpretation of death metal, is set to release their full-length debut album “Dark Tales of Forgotten Mindscapes.” The 9-track album is permeated with a dark, atmospheric tone, with lyrics that touch on the hells of substance abuse, addiction and hope for recovery.

The Erie, PA band's album represents a venture into high-concept storytelling, with each song representing a stage of addiction as it pulls a person downward through deteriorating states of physical, mental and spiritual health.

Requiem For Oblivion and the themes of “Dark Tales” are the culmination of front man Steve Jacobson's own past and a desire to chronicle his struggle with addiction through complex, heavy and diverse musical performances.

“Dark Tales of Forgotten Mindscapes” is set to launch in May, 2014. The first single, Thinking of Death, is available for streaming from the band's official website, as well as Reverbnation.

Thank you for any and all consideration!

"Desolate, extreme dark metal dreamscapes with an aura of sorrow....

...the smooth vocals and ambience of Katatonia and diverse heaviness of Opeth and Between The Buried And Me."

"Could be the soundtrack to a David Lynch movie."

"...this is hybrid-metal, intriguing, experimental insanity at its best!"

REQUIEM FOR OBLIVION

Heavy metal with a hint of death, black, doom, folk, goth, extreme, prog, and lots of ambience, desperation, and melancholy. For fans of Opeth, Katatonia, Daylight Dies, My Dying Bride and BTBAM.
