Former Obscura Guitarist Christian Münzner Accuses The Band Of Stolen Riffs

Former Obscura guitarist Christian Münzner has accused the band of stealing some of his material. This news comes shortly after former bassist Alex Weber and his Exist bandmate Max Phelps made similar allegations.

Münzner commented:

“I just heard more of the new Obscura. There are riffs I had written and was guaranteed would not be used, and they are being used 1:1, note for note, stolen, copied, as well as entire song structures. Mr. Tech Death Genius strikes again I would say. If Nuclear Blast releases this they are thiefs as well.

I will not let this slide and explore every legal avanue. There are limits to how much shit we should tolerate. These songs were intended for a solo EP I was planning to do after the Obscura split, now I can not do this anymore. This can not go on. Especially if we “agree to disagree” because of creative differences and then you use other peoples work, after you say we are not on the same page what we want musically?”
