MORS PRINCIPIUM EST have announced a new album!

Titled Darkness Invisible, the upcoming album from the Finnish melodic death metal band is the follow-up to 2022’s Liberate The Unborn Inhumanity, and is scheduled to be released in September this year, via their new home at PERCEPTION.

Speaking about joining the label, vocalist Ville Viljanen says, “joining PERCEPTION marks a powerful new chapter for us. We’re proud to be part of a label family that houses so many legendary titans. With their support, we’re ready to unleash our most furious, blistering and ambitious work yet. The future burns bright, shrouded in Darkness Invisible.”

Label strategist Nils Wasko adds, “throughout their career, MORS PRINCIPIUM EST have kept impressing me and the rest of the metal world with solid melodic death of the faster kind. Although they’ve never been the most active live band, they succeed in growing their following with each of their releases what underlines the masterfulness of their craft additionally…and in this case, [Of] Death is really just the beginning. Welcome to PERCEPTION!”

The upcoming album was self-recorded at Ansa Studio (Ulvila, Finland); Jens Bogren mixed and Tony Lindgren mastered the ten new tracks at Örebro, Sweden’s Fascination Street Studios (AMORPHIS, SEPULTURA, KREATOR etc.). Alvaro Valverde Fernandez was hired to create artwork and layout.

Alongside the announcement of the new album, MORS PRINCIPIUM EST have released a new song lifted from the upcoming album; Of Death.
