UK Doomsters return with four new songs for May release. “The Manuscript” contains over 27 minutes of new doom material in the unique style that only “My Dying Bride” can deliver.

Dark melody and power embraced in this four track will be what fans will dive into until the next full album comes out. Opener “A Pale Shroud of Longing” is a dark chill to the approaching summer nights full of power and oncoming musical slaughter. Be prepared to listen to music full of mood that endeavours to take you to dark places. Title track “The Manuscript“ is the stand out track full of sweeping melodic beauty and dark powerful undertone.
