British doom metal legends MY DYING BRIDE have unveiled the artwork for their new album, A Map Of All Our Failures, to be released October 15th in Europe and October 16th in North America via Peaceville Records on CD, double vinyl and special edition CD/DVD.

The album recording and mix was recently completed at Futureworks Studios in Manchester UK, with long-standing production maestro Mags at the helm.

A step up from 2009’s For Lies I Sire - which set and subsequently met new heights of expectation placed upon the legendary Yorkshire doom troupe - A Map Of All Our Failures is a further voyage into the darkest depths of humanity, religion, folklore, love and death. My Dying Bride’s distinctively sumptuous dual guitar melodies effortlessly flood into juggernaut doom metal riffs, with the vocals of Aaron Stainthorpe weaving a rich tapestry of tragic tales into the accompanying soundscapes. A Map Of All Our Failures is perhaps best and most effectively summarised by guitarist Andrew Craighan, who describes the album as “a controlled demolition of all your hopes.”

The tracklisting is as follows:

'Kneel Till Doomsday'

'The Poorest Waltz'

'A Tapestry Scorned'

'Like A Perpetual Funeral'

'A Map Of All Our Failures'

'Hail Odysseus'

'Within The Presence Of Absence'

'Abandoned As Christ'

My Dying Bride will be embarking upon a European tour in December in support of the album, as well as a local appearance at the UK’s esteemed Damnation Festival in November, at which Peaceville will be a proud sponsor to coincide with the label’s 25th anniversary. The band have said that they will debut tracks from the new album at Damnation Festival.
