A Mortal Binding
A Mortal Binding is an album by the English doom metal band My Dying Bride, released on 19 April 2024. It follows The Ghost of Orion, which came out in 2020, and stands as the last record to feature Aaron Stainthorpe, the band's original lead vocalist. That makes it a significant closing chapter for a group that began with As the Flower Withers in 1992.
