Prepare yourselves for a journey back into the abyss with Ne Obliviscaris. This fall the titans of extreme progressive metal are celebrating 10 years of “Citadel” by releasing a remastered version of their iconic sophomore album.
The band will also be making new memories on tour in Europe and Latin America while performing a career-spanning set with old friend and drummer Dan Presland, who brings both a thunder and precision that only he can command.
The Remastered 10-Year Anniversary Edition of “Citadel” will be released across all digital platforms on August 16 via Season of Mist. A CD and vinyl version will be announced later this year.

“First of all, we just wanted to thank Kevin Paradis who has done a wonderful job over the last 14 months as the band’s live drummer on our Exul world tour” Ne Obliviscaris says. “Kevin has been part of some of our best-ever tours and we are grateful for his contribution to creating some of our best-ever moments performing as a band. Reuniting with Dan on drums was not something we had in mind until quite recently. But after three years apart, and a rekindled friendship, the lure of performing “Citadel”, “Exul” and other fan-favorites with Dan behind the kit is something we are incredibly excited about. This exciting news, combined with our just-completed European summer festival tour, and the amazing new re-master of “Citadel” on the horizon, sets up an amazing second half of 2024 for us. See you all on the road!”
First unleashed in 2014, “Citadel” stands as a monolith in Ne Obliviscaris‘ discography, epitomizing their unique blend of ferocity and grace. This new version was remastered by Mark Lewis, who mixed and mastered the band’s latest album, “Exul”. Together, they’ve meticulously resurrected the original’s power, ensuring every note, every growl, and every whisper of the violin rings clearer and more haunting than before.
Ne Obliviscaris will perform “Citadel” and “Exul” in full this fall while touring Europe and the United Kingdom. Presland – who drums for Vipassi and Black Lava – will also join them on this special anniversary tour. Get tickets HERE:
VIP Upgrades will be made available soon!
