Belgian death metal stalwarts Carnation will be releasing their third studio album, 'Cursed Mortality,' on November 3, 2023 via Season of Mist! The band is now unleashing a haunting music video for the title track, which can be found below.

"Carnation fans will undoubtedly find what they have come to love and expect on 'Cursed Mortality,' however, they should also expect the unexpected." teases vocalist Simon Duson. "This song captures the essence of our musical evolution. It's an epic journey that explores a wide range of musical landscapes all while looking back at life's pivotal moments. Am I happy and satisfied with how I've lived my life? Where did it go wrong or right?"

Indeed, 'Cursed Mortality' signifies a new era for Carnation as it demonstrates an evolutionary period for the band. While the Belgian slayers still hold the values of traditional death metal, they step outside of their comfort zone with more melody and technicality, showcasing their versatility as musicians and clearly defining their own unique sound.

To further illustrate the band's new era, frontman Simon Duson is also now revealing a brand new countenance, as seen in the new music video!

'Cursed Mortality' follows up 'Where Death Lies,' which was named among one of the best records of 2020 by Loudwire (Best Songs of 2020), The Pit, Chicago Music Guide, Pandemonium Metal, and more! Carnation was also named among one of the 50 Greatest Death Metal Bands Right Now by Kerrang! (#14).

The album can be pre-saved across all streaming services HERE while pre-sales will be revealed at a later date.
