With "A Mortal Binding", the flower wilts once again…
British doom/death metal legends My Dying Bride are ready to release their 15th album, A Mortal Binding, via Nuclear Blast. For the highly anticipated follow-up to 2019's "The Ghost of Orion", the Yorkshire-based quintet delight us with a revamped line-up with the addition of permanent guitarist Neil Blanchett and the return of drummer Dan Mullins. While "My Dying Bride" has completed her 33rd year, her graceful age proves just as vital and heartbreaking as ever.
The songs "Thornwyck Hymn", "Her Dominion", "The 2nd of Three Bells" and "The Apocalyptist" are ultra-heavy, poignant anthems of doom, death and despair, while all shining through their romantic lyricism.
