German progressive death metal masters, OBSCURA, are set to return to the U.S. this spring for the 'Stardust Tour.' The 18-date run begins on March 15th at the legendary Whisky-A-Go-Go in Hollywood, includes key stops in Austin, Philadelphia, and Detroit, and concludes on April 3rd in Roseville, CA. They will be joined by ALLEGAEON, COGNITIVE, and CRYPTOSIS.
OBSCURA's Steffen Kummerer comments, “OBSCURA will return to the United States in March and April 2026 as part of the ongoing 'A Sonication World Tour' (2025–2027). We look forward to presenting material from the new album alongside a selection of deep cuts that have never been performed live before. Joining us are Allegaeon and Cognitive from the United States—both leading forces in modern technical and progressive death metal—and Dutch avant-garde thrash unit Cryptosis, completing a powerful and diverse lineup. The ‘Stardust USA 2026’ tour promises an immersive and uncompromising live experience for our North American fans.”
Tickets for the tour will be available on Friday, December 19th at 10:00 PST at https://realmofobscura.com/live.
