Description
Nourished by nightmares and the throbbing pulse of pragmatic terror, Carnifex have returned with their 9th full-length studio album, Necromanteum, out this fall via Nuclear Blast Records.
The cover artwork glows with an emerald and lavender fog; a ghostly energy erupting from the depths of a cemetery. Designed by renowned comic book artist E.M. Gist, this gateway represents the questions we ask about what lies on the other side of reality.
While it may come as a surprise to some fans, the themes of Necromanteum are a little less personal compared to previous Carnifex releases. Vocalist and founder Scott Ian Lewis explains: We wanted to delve into more supernatural and ethereal subjects like astral projection, the duality of man, and the crossroads of intellectualism and the supernatural There was indeed a time when Doctors were also performing seances!
This album is for the fans, states Lewis. Were always striving to give you the best version of us, but its only ours until we turn it in. Then it becomes everyone elses record. Its a form of entertainment, and we truly hope to help listeners break away from real life, and have some escape into our little world through the Necromanteum.
