The band states, "We have had an overwhelming response to Obsidian and the global chart positions are also fantastic, so thanks to everyone who bought it and supported us! Rest assured we will be out playing and touring as much as we can, as soon as we are allowed!"

Under the circumstances of the last months, Obsidian became something like a sign of hope for music fans all over the worlds, the previously released singles a soundtrack for these difficult, uncertain times.

These days, the legend from Halifax is the drug that numbs the pain , the lover that takes away the sorrows, the story that craves to be told. But of course, everyone spins his or her own story in the turbulences of life. But the most important: A new chapter has begun. And that's what gives us hope in difficult times like this.
