»Das Unglückliche Bewußtsein«, the new Fretting Obscurity project album [Funeral Doom / Death – Ukraine] is now available as digipack CD as well as to listen to on Bandcamp: bitumeprods.bandcamp.com!

The new album from Fretting Obscurity, »Das Unglückliche Bewußtsein«, draws inspiration from the tragic worldview of pre-Socratic and classical German philosophy.

The album consists of four songs that set the poetry of classic European authors to 50 minutes of music in a style of flowing, melodic funeral doom. The musical canvas is complemented by oppressive inserts of doom-death, black, and post-metal, creating an atmosphere of existential uncertainty, helplessness, abandonment, and dark despair.

The album is also available on streaming platforms!

Composed and recorded by Yaroslav Yakos, Kyiv, 2021-2022.
Mixed and mastered by Volodymyr Trofimov, Pavlohrad, 2023.
