Betrayal, corruption, false gods, and a decaying order: "Obscure" emerges as the third single—following "Fine" and "Gölgesiz"—from Ductape's forthcoming album Faded Flowers, due for release in late September. Driven by a harsh synth bassline, cold and distant vocals, and distorted guitars, "Obscure" unfolds with mounting tension, culminating in a chorus shaped by accusation and quiet rebellion.
Lyrically, the track navigates disillusionment, stolen light, and the emotional numbness that follows the collapse of belief systems. It reflects a cycle in which decay becomes normalised, and resistance fades into silence.
The single is accompanied by a live video recorded in Berlin, capturing the band in a raw, stripped‑down performance setting.

"With Hypocrisy, I'm very "home", but with Pain, it's an adventure, just like going into the jungle only with a knife and no glass of water and trying to survive." - Peter Tägtgren
"It's a dark album. According to me, it's the darkest yet in our discography. It's also very suggestive, very introverted, less direct, and might be less friendly..." - Daniel Moilanen
"I find it really bizarre, because right after the concert, you're already on the internet. I mean, come on. It's very different from how it used to be, but it's fine." - Anja Huwe
"There were already bands doing small illustrations of symphonic metal, and I was thinking, why doesn't someone do this all the time?" - Christofer Johnsson
