A Celebration I - Live in North America is the new live album from metal band Obscura. Fans can now experience the sheer energy and raw intensity of their stage presence, captured flawlessly in this live recording for the first time.

Recorded in the USA, Canada, and Mexico between 2022 and 2023 as part of the band's "A Valediction World Tour," the album takes listeners
on a journey through Obscura’s discography, featuring fan favourites from albums like "Cosmogenesis", "Omnivium", "Akroasis”, “Diluvium”, and the chart breaking “A Valediction”.

A Celebration I was mixed & mastered by Fredrik Nordström at Fredman Studio, where the band’s mastermind Steffen Kummerer worked with him to select the perfect set list to share with fans.

Steffen Kummerer comments: “A Celebration I - Live in North America covers a selection of concerts we performed in the United States of America, Canada and Mexico between 2022 and 2023 as part of the „A Valediction World Tour“. Within 20 years, we are looking towards the first live album of Obscura, spiked with songs of our last five releases. It was a pleasure working through every recorded show to pick the best song, the loudest possible audience and a stellar performance by a band that's on fire. As a first impression, we choose „The Anticosmic Overload“ performed in the United States of America, since this was the first song ever we performed in North America back in 2009."
