MAVIS announce debut album ‘Grief Is No Ally’

MAVIS have announced their debut album!

Titled Grief Is No Ally, the upcoming album from the German metalcore band is their debut full-length album, and is scheduled to be released in December this year, via Arising Empire.

On the debut album, the title of the record stands for 11 stories of different forms of grieving, ranging from the dark and negative sides to the positive and healthy aspects of embracing grief, letting go.

Alongside the announcement of the debut album, the band have released a new music video for a new song lifted from the upcoming album; Calypso. The new song is the third single to be released from the upcoming debut, following on from Furry Tongue and Tortured Land.

Speaking about the new song, vocalist Phil Donay says, “it felt as though MAVIS was doomed just as it began to flourish. Yet, we endured those challenging times, and akin to the song, we were drawn to a faint yet alluring glimmer of hope that pierced through the gloom. Clinging to that light, we now find ourselves more united and resilient than before.”
