This is the final installment of the “Seven Days of Bereavement: A My Dying Bride Retrospective”. I hope that you all enjoyed taking a journey into the 33 years since My Dying Bride’s inception, and diving into the releases of this great band. I had to reduce these editorials to the full-length releases only after the first couple of EP’s and this last EP (since it's their latest release) due to time constraints.
My Dying Bride’s seventh EP, titled “Macabre Caberet” was released in digital, CD and vinyl formats via Nuclear Blast on November 20th, 2020.
Background:
Frontman Aaron Stainthorpe said of the album:
"Macabre Cabaret delves into the shadow empire of dark love and the consequences of unchecked sexuality. The deep passion of physical desire and its all-conquering rage over pure love is written bleakly here. A destructive essence within the soul can’t help but rear its ugly head. A Secret Kiss is the final and lasting mark on the soul any human will feel when the lights have dulled and nothing meaningful remains for them. All religion features a shadow creature who arrives at the point of extinction and the release of the human soul, to either guide them to majesty or allow them do fall eternally into the ether. A Purse of Gold and Stars is where we keep our hopes and desires and affection, perhaps in a dreamlike state, unattainable yet we still reach out for them. The trinkets and shiny baubles we call happiness and love are what we try so hard to keep close and protect. But it is never quite like that in real life and is often a struggle tainted with sadness but still, we hold the purse close and in tight cold hands."
