Philippe Drouin Obvurt Unleashes Devastating Full-Length Album “Le Chemin Du Gaucher” – Double-Guitar Death Metal at Its Peak

Prepare for 35 minutes of unrelenting technical fury as Philippe Drouin Obvurt drops his new full-length album “Le Chemin Du Gaucher” on November 9th , with a new video unveiling each week.

The album features drums performed and co-written by John Longstreth , who brought an explosive intensity that perfectly complements Philippe’s groundbreaking double-guitar compositions.

“ Le Chemin Du Gaucher ” is a concept album that reunites five essential aspects a person needs to learn an instrument, plus a Gojira medley and a J.S. Bach cover , all performed on the double-guitar. Definitions drawn from the dictionary were adapted and placed directly into the riffs, turning technical mastery into pure storytelling through sound.

After a life-altering car accident left him with an osteophyte on his picking hand, Philippe Drouin faced the monumental challenge of relearning guitar left-handed. Guided by guitar legend Michael Angelo Batio and armed with his first double-neck guitar, he rebuilt his craft from the ground up.

This album represents that journey—a fearless experiment in form, power, and precision. No influences. No imitation. Just pure Philippe Drouin Obvurt .

Album Lineup – Le Chemin Du Gaucher:
Philippe Drouin – guitars, vocals
John Longstreth – drums

Released via Brutal Mind , Le Chemin Du Gaucher stands as a bold evolution in death metal—a relentless, conceptual, and intensely personal statement from one of the most innovative guitarists in modern extreme music.
