Ghost Iris announce new album ‘Comatose’

GHOST IRIS have announced a new album!

Titled Comatose, the upcoming album from the Danish technical metalcore band is the follow-up to 2019’s Apple of Discord, which is scheduled to be released in May this year, via Long Branch Records.

Speaking about the upcoming album, the band says, Comatose is a title that represents in a plethora of ways. It’s about the fact that many people are asleep, but even from a coma, one can arise. On the surface it might seem extremely dark, nihilistic and bearing of a defeatist attitude, but darkness cannot exist where there’s light. We all exist in the age of enlightenment and even though it seems as if we’re all screwed and the earth is almost destroyed, times will surely change. Arise from the coma, no longer comatose, we fight the demons.

The artwork for Comatose depicts Kali, whose name translates to “she who is death”, as a mere mortal. To serve the title of the album, the majority of mankind are asleep and oblivious as to what is going on around them. Ultimately, we are death. However, there is no darkness without the light – let us all arise from the coma.”
