XIII -The Innocent Scythe- Front Cover

Lyric

Everlasting Will

The ObsidiaN

"There's me where there's you like

There's shadow where there's light."

He left the words there and departed

I was all alone

I only kept chasing his shadow

そこに意思はあるのか?

(I don’t know) what I want to do

(I don't know) what is what

Who can save me?

There is no more God

それでも いつの日か

届くと信じて

紡ぎ続けた 言葉

連ねて 束ねて 絡まって

其の果てに宿った 不屈の意思

繋がった糸

汲み取った意図

時を経て

此処に今 残すよ

(I leave my words)

存在の証明を

"Where there's a will, there's a way."

We believe this word

光差した奥に

群れを成した陰影

Our faith won't fade into heartless empty words

悪意に抗う 強固たる信念

Our hearts won't fade into careless rude acts

礼節を欠いた 愚者への裁きを

紡ぐ言ノ葉 朽ちる事の無い意思

Everlasting Will

This is a strong will

This will can't be

Broken by someone like you

それでも いつの日か

届くと信じて

紡ぎ続けた

言ノ葉は 想いの舞う場所へ

蒼炎は燃え 僕達を照らす

そして時代は巡り

また言ノ葉は芽吹く

繋がった糸

汲み取った意図

時を経て

此処に今 残すよ

(I leave my words)

朽ちることの無い 意思を。

The ObsidiaN 2nd EP

"XIII -The Innocent Scythe-"

After two and a half years, Gifu-based The ObsidiaN returns with their highly anticipated second EP, "XIII -The Innocent Scythe-"

Rooted in the spirit of Gifu's pristine rivers and the raw energy born from its landscape, this release embodies what The ObsidiaN calls **"Seiryu Core"**- a sound deeply connected to their hometown, yet constantly evolving beyond its boundaries.

On this EP, post-rock, hardcore, and metalcore collide and transform into something uniquely The ObsidiaN. Atmospheric textures and dynamic shifts meet uncompromising aggression, crushing heaviness, and emotional intensity.

Rather than simply blending these genres together, The ObsidiaN breaks them down and rebuilds them through their own perspective, creating a sound that is both familiar and entirely new.

It is a significant departure from their previous work - a reflection of everything the band has experienced, changed, and carried forward over the past two and a half years.

The EP features the previously released singles "Everlasting Will" and "Blue Flame", alongside newly written material.
Including the opening SE, the release consists of six tracks, designed to unfold as one continuous story.

At the heart of the EP lies the number "XIII".

In Tarot, XIII represents "Death" - not simply physical death, but endings, transformation, release, and rebirth. It is the moment when one chapter closes, making room for something new to emerge.

Birth.
Growth.
Love.
Loss.
Struggle.
Decay.
And, ultimately, transformation.

"XIII -The Innocent Scythe-" portrays the cycle of human existence through six tracks, tracing the fragile and violent journey of a life from beginning to end - and beyond.

The scythe does not merely symbolize destruction.
It cuts away what must end, clearing the path for what comes next.

After two and a half years of silence, The ObsidiaN emerges transformed.

From the clear streams of Gifu, a new wave of intensity begins to flow.

This is not the end.

It is a record of transformation.
A soundtrack for those who continue to change.
A new beginning born from the end.

The ObsidiaN - XIII -The Innocent Scythe-

Six tracks. One story. One transformation.
