'

Exciting news today as melodic doom masters Novembers Doom release a video for

the track "Mercy" from forthcoming 12th album, Major Arcana. Out 9/19 via Prophecy, it is another jewel in theirgloomy crown,"Mercy" is an enthralling extension and elevation or their storied sound.

NOVEMBERS DOOM comment: "For me, 'Mercy' stands out as the most personal song on this record", vocalist Paul Kuhr reveals. "We also felt that a visual concept with emphasis on the lyrics was the right concept for this song. From my perspective, 'Mercy' explores the paralyzing fear associated with confronting mortality. This is juxtaposed with the time and age disparity between my wife and myself. This song delves deep into personal guilt for knowing that quite likely I'll be leaving her alone one day. The lyrics therefore embody abandonment, and they are deeply rooted in loss, sadness, and pure emotion. Larry's solo performance is arguably my favorite of all that he has ever recorded, as it perfectly captures the intended feelings and simply 'sings' all the words I couldn't write down."
