Oblivion is the mind-bending next chapter from Return To Earth — the band’s third album, following 2007’s Captains of Industry, and 2010’s Automata (released on Metal Blade Records).
In the decade following the release of Automata, the band became more self-sufficient as producers and engineers. They also may or may not have dissolved before reuniting virtually in 2020 to finish their latest record.
Oblivion was conceived, written and produced by Return To Earth, and mixed and mastered by Chris Pennie, known for his work as a founding member of The Dillinger Escape Plan and a long stint playing drums in Coheed & Cambria. The new album is the darkest and most symphonic of the band’s career — featuring guitar-driven singles “Codex” and “Wolf Bait” and the electronic, cinematic “Favor From God” and “Forget My Face.”
