Carnifex To Release New Album In October

After existing as a band for over 18 years, Carnifex continue to experiment with fresh song arrangements, adding a unique sense of atmosphere to their inherently deathcore foundation.
Decades ago, wealthy intellectuals began installing psychomanteum in their homes; a secret room completely filled with mirrors, or a single mirror, in complete darkness, in order to speak to the dead in other dimensions, and gain their knowledge. It was often used as a healing tool to help dissolve grief, or considered a form of prophecy. "Necromanteum" presents the concept: what if you could use that kind of room to speak with death, itself? What secrets of the world could you uncover from a direct conversation with the grim reaper? Not a monster, but a fellow intellect.
Today, the band releases the title track "Necromanteum" which broaches on these existential topics. Watch the music video directed by Jim Louvau and Tony Aguilera. You can check out the video for the song below.
Carnifex's Scott Ian Lewis comments; "'Necromanteum' is a truly special album that all of us in the band already love. Spend some time in conversation with the other side of life, enter the Necromanteum…" More...
