Arcana Obscura is back with a new single, ‘Sakura’, in September

Out via ConSequence Records in September is the all new Arcana Obscura single “Sakura”.
“Sakura” arrives right after the independ single “Living a Lie” and is the first single release from the upcoming album “Agrathalla”, the first full album since 2017’s “2000 Miles”. The title track is lyrically a Japanese traditional that describes the beauty of the (Japanese) cherry blossom.
As a B-side, the single holds two exclusive instrumental rhythmic soundtracks, “Black Pagoda” and “Premonition”. The new album will have more world music and medieval elements.
Here’s a short trailer of the new single. Read the review of ‘Sakura’.

Why we ask
Advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations we have not put up a paywall, and we refuse to add annoying advertising, so we need to ask for your help. Side-Line’s independent journalism takes time, money and hard work to produce, and we do it to push the artists we like, who are equally fighting to survive.
