My Dying Bride is a British doom band that was formed in 1990. Originally starting out as a slower-than-usual death metal act, the band quickly became known for their unique blend of doom metal, incorporating elements of death and black metal. Their first recording, "Towards The Sinister," led to their debut EP "Symphonaire Infernus Et Spera Empyrium" and their first full-length album "As the Flower Withers." The success of these releases paved the way for further experimentation with different musical styles on albums like "Turn Loose The Swans" and "The Angel And The Dark River."

Despite achieving commercial success, My Dying Bride never stopped pushing boundaries and exploring new sounds. This can be heard on albums like "34.788%...Complete," which showcased their willingness to innovate within their own original style. Over the years, they have influenced many other bands and even spawned a subgenre.

The band has seen some lineup changes throughout its history, including replacements due to pregnancy and departures. However, this has not hindered their ability to create powerful music. With Calvin Robertshaw rejoining the band after 15 years and Shaun Macgowan stepping in as a replacement member, My Dying Bride continues to captivate audiences with their distinctive sound.

Nuclear Blast is a German independent label that specializes in metal and related music styles. Founded in 1987 by Markus Staiger, the label has become a prominent force in the metal industry.

In addition to their European presence, Nuclear Blast America operates as a US company with similar business tasks in collaboration with Century Media. They also have a South American branch working alongside Century Media.

A typical Nuclear Blast catalogue number follows the format "NB XXXX-F", where F represents the format of the release. This can vary but generally includes limited first editions (such as Digipak or O-Card) for both CD and DVD (-0), LPs or other vinyl formats (-1), jewelcase CDs or promo CDs/DVDs (-2), video tapes or tapes (-3/-4), box sets or limited mailorder editions with bonus CDs/DVDs (-5), some vinyl 7”s (-7), shape CDs (-8), and picture vinyls (-9). Earlier releases may only have three digits.

With an extensive catalog of metal music and an authoritative presence in the industry, Nuclear Blast continues to be a leading label for fans of heavy music

The Ghost of Orion posits My Dying Bride back on the proverbial doom-death throne. In fact, they’ve never sounded better. From the doleful lay in Your Broken Shore and the deathly traditional A Secret Kiss to the introspective To Outlive the Gods and the grim 10-minute epic The Old Earth, The Ghost of Orion is the product of a vibrantly creative band unwilling to rest on their laurels or past glories.
