Norwegian melodic metal act HOLLOW PEAK unveil their second single and video “Labyrinth”, offering a deeper glimpse into the emotional and conceptual landscape of their upcoming debut album “Obsidian Cult”.
A poetic journey through inner unrest and personal revelation, “Labyrinth” explores the search for truth and meaning within the maze of the self. With its balance of mysterious ambience, powerful melodies, and soaring vocal performance, the song expands the album’s atmospheric dimension and showcases one of the band’s most introspective works to date.
The track follows the previously released single “Attack” (watch here), which introduced the heavier, more cinematic side of “Obsidian Cult”.
Before the album drops, fans will have the chance to hear new material live at a special Pre-Release Party on December 12th.
Produced by Ragnhild Westgaard and Marius Karlsen, and mixed and mastered by Corey Bergeron, Obsidian Cult marks a bold evolution from the band’s 2023 self-released EP. The record presents a heavier, darker, and more refined sound — balancing atmosphere, melody, and strength in equal measure.
The album’s concept explores alienation in the digital age, inner battles, and personal renewal. From the reflective opener “From Ashes Rises a Crown” to the haunting title track “Obsidian Cult”, each song unfolds as part of a larger journey between chaos and clarity.
