Ne Obliviscaris Turn To Fans To Keep Them On The Road

"We're launching the most important thing we’ve ever done."

More Ne Obliviscaris Ne Obliviscaris Profile

In an effort to combat reduced revenue as the industry shifts, Australian prog-metal outfit Ne Obliviscaris have launched an interactive fan membership program to keep them on the road.

The Melbourne act aren’t strangers to the crowd-funding side of things, dominating a campaign in 2014 for a world tour that raised more than $86,000, smashing their asking figure of $40,000 in just 38 hours.

“We’re launching the most important thing we’ve ever done in our career and it addresses a problem in the industry that has been bugging us for a couple of years now,” Tim Charles said.

“Things need to change, not just for us, but for a lot of bands to able to keep doing this. No one pays for CDs any more.”

The new program, named Ne Obluminati, is live now via Patreon, which details exactly where money will go as well as giving info on the varied membership levels.
