Dark metal outfit Novembers Doom has shared the grey and melancholic yet beautiful single/lyric video, "Mercy", from its impending album, Major Arcana, set for release on 19 September via Prophecy Productions.

Novembers Doom's vocalist, Paul Kuhr, reveals: "For me, 'Mercy' stands out as the most personal song on this record. We also felt that a visual concept with emphasis on the lyrics was the right concept for this song. From my perspective, 'Mercy' explores the paralyzing fear associated with confronting mortality. This is juxtaposed with the time and age disparity between my wife and myself. This song delves deep into personal guilt for knowing that quite likely I'll be leaving her alone one day. The lyrics therefore embody abandonment, and they are deeply rooted in loss, sadness, and pure emotion. Larry's solo performance is arguably my favorite of all that he has ever recorded, as it perfectly captures the intended feelings and simply 'sings' all the words I couldn't write down".
