Urn is the third studio album by Australian metal band Ne Obliviscaris, released on October 27, 2017 via Season of Mist.[7] It was released to Patreon contributors a few days earlier. It's the first album not to feature former bassist Brendan "Cygnus" Brown, who left the band in early 2017 due to his allegations of domestic violence.[8] Robin Zielhorst, former member of Cynic and Exivious, was recruited as their session bassist for the album.[9]

The first single from the album "Intra Venus" was released on July 27, 2017, accompanying a music video.[9] On August 29, 2017, the band released another song "Urn (Part I) – And Within the Void We Are Breathless".[10] The third song, "Urn (Part II) - As Embers Dance in Our Eyes" was available for streaming on October 10, 2017.[11]
