Carnifex have just released the pulverizing title track from their new album, Necromanteum. The deathcore veterans also dropped a video for the symphonic “Necromanteum,” which expands on the new album’s horror-centric concept.
“Decades ago, wealthy intellectuals began installing psychomanteum in their homes; a secret room completely filled with mirrors, or a single mirror, and in complete darkness, in order to speak to the dead in other dimensions, and gain their knowledge,” Carnifex explained in a press release.
“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.”
Necromanteum was recorded with longtime collaborator Jason Suecof, mastered by Mark Lewis, and co-produced by Carnifex vocalist Scott Ian Lewis and drummer Shawn Cameron.
Necromanteum will be released October 6th via Nuclear Blast. Check out the title track’s music video above.
