In a recent interview with
Blissfulviolet of
Beyond The Dark Horizon,
MY DYING BRIDE vocalist
Aaron Stainthorpe stated about the band's upcoming ninth studio album, "Naturally, we think it's our best work to date and has a sort of 'new-meets-old' sound; the violins giving a nod to our past and the new riffs and vocals showing the way forward. It is quite possibly the most depressing thing we've created to date, and all the more wonderful for it."
Asked how he feels the new CD differs from
MY DYING BRIDE's last studio album,
"A Line of Deathless Kings",
Aaron replied, "Would you believe it, it's even darker? I've pushed the vocals further, finding more melodies, as have the guitars, and, of course, the violin has added a deep range of feeling. It's quite a fresh, melodic sound despite being utterly despondent."
