This is Near Death Condition‘s first new music since 2014’s full-length Evolving Towards Extinction.

On the new single, the band comment: “The Universe consists of elements that don’t go without its opposite: light and darkness, the masculine and the feminine, the infinitely large and the infinitely small, the good and the evil. Every thing needs its opposite to exist. And ‘The Bridal Chamber’, through the metaphor of the twin souls painfully separated from birth in search of the other with the nostalgia of this lost unity, is a hymn to the union of these opposites that can turn ignorance into wisdom.”

On the album Ascent from the Mundane, they continue: “With references to Gnosticism, Ascent from the Mundane is a hymn to the spark of light trapped in the darkness of the world of matter that every human being is made of and is inspired by an introspection, a spiritual journey towards the deepest being, a connection in mindfulness with the darkest side of oneself to let the brightest side shine out. Imbued with darkness and light, the contrast between crawling-in-the-mire rhythmic parts topped with unhinged vocals and otherworldly cosmic lead guitars makes this album an attempt to remind that nothing is completely dark even when it sometimes seems to during the hardest times in life, and that light can only be revealed within darkness.”
