Norwegian black metal icons Mayhem\u2019s new album Liturgy Of Death is coming out in about a month\u2019s time and they\u2019re back with yet another taste of what\u2019s to come. Rather than focus on a main track off the list, they\u2019ve opted this time to go for a special track included in the final package.<\/p>\n

\u201cLife Is A Corpse You Drag\u201d is about as hopeful as you\u2019d expect from Mayhem, which means that it\u2019s not hopeful at all. It\u2019s just the brutally honest truth that no matter what you do, you\u2019ll ultimately be dragged kicking and screaming into the abyss \u2014 so what\u2019s the point?<\/p>\n

Speaking of the track, Mayhem\u2019s Attila explains what \u201cLife Is A Corpse You Drag\u201d is all about, but I think we all know that already\u2026<\/p>\n

\u201c\u2018Life Is a Corpse You Drag\u2019 is not a slogan, but a ritual and a realization. It names an ancient law: Consciousness as burden, the body as vessel, faith as a seal on a grave already closed. There is no comfort in this recognition but there is release. If we have been dead all along, there is nothing left to lose. What remains is pure energy: Movement without fear, presence without compromise, a victorious march into the final destruction.\u201d\n<\/p>\n

Liturgy Of Death\u00a0will be released on February 6, but you can\u00a0preorder your copy today<\/a>.<\/p>\n
