More information about Cursed Mortality

Belgian death metal crushers CARNATION are ready to show us their song ‘Maruta’!

The track is a dark take on the Japanese Unit 731, also known as the Manshu Detachment 731. This unit routinely conducted tests on people who were dehumanized and internally referred to as “logs” (or Maruta, in Japanese).

Watch the music video for “Maruta” HERE.

‘Maruta’ is taken from the band’s new album “Cursed Mortality”, which will be spread across the globe on the 3rd of November 2023 via Season of Mist. The album can be pre-saved HERE.

Frontman Simon Duson comments: “We are back with the second single for our upcoming third album Cursed Mortality. To accentuate the diversity of the album, ‘Maruta’ feels like the perfect single to follow-up ‘Cursed Mortality’. This track is loaded with thrashy hooks, groovy beats, and punishing death metal riffs. Those who desire brutality, look no further. ‘Maruta’ is here to crush your skull!”

CARNATION previously released a haunting video for the title track off ‘Cursed Mortality’, which you can watch HERE.

‘Cursed Mortality’ casts Carnation in a deeper and darker light. The first four singles off the Belgian band’s new album experiment with gloomy synths, melodic leads, clean vocals and lyrics inspired by sci-fi classics and a real life horror story from WWII. Their new single “Cycle of Suffering” is a brutal reminder of why Carnation are at the forefront of the old-school death metal revival.
