Finnish melodic death stalwarts Mors Principium Est announce their new studio album, Darkness Invisible. Officially signed to Perception, the latest imprint of Reigning Phoenix Music, the band will once again embrace listeners with razor-sharp riffing, sweeping orchestration, melancholic harmonies, and relentless rhythmic precision – topped by Ville Viljanen’s unmistakable vocals.
Viljanen comments: “Joining Perception marks a powerful new chapter for us. We’re proud to be part of a label family that houses so many legendary titans. With their support, we’re ready to unleash our most furious, blistering and ambitious work yet. The future burns bright, shrouded in Darkness Invisible.”
“Throughout their career, Mors Principium Est have kept impressing me and the rest of the metal world with solid melodic death of the faster kind. Although they’ve never been the most active live band, they succeed in growing their following with each of their releases what underlines the masterfulness of their craft additionally… and in this case, ‘Of Death’ is really just the beginning. Welcome to Perception!” states label strategist Nils Wasko.
MPE are also not stingy with details above all: Darkness Invisible will finally be unleashed upon the world on September 26, 2025, and was once again self-recorded at Ansa Studio (Ulvila, Finland); Jens Bogren mixed and Tony Lindgren mastered the ten new tracks (plus CD / digital bonus song) at Örebro, Sweden’s Fascination Street Studios (Amorphis, Sepultura, Kreator). Alvaro Valverde Fernandez was hired to create the artwork and layout.
Tracklisting:
Of Death
Venator
Monuments
Tenebrae Latebra
Summoning The Dark
Beyond The Horizon
The Rivers Of Avernus
In Sleep There Is Peace
An Aria Of The Damned
All Life Is Evil
Bonus Track (digipak / digital only):

Despite delivering MPE’s much-loved trademark elements, Darkness Invisible is not content to simply revisit old formulas, but it expands upon them: the arrangements are more cinematic than ever, layered with subtle electronic textures, ambient passages, and dynamic shifts that mirror the emotional weight carried within the lyrics – and the result is a work that feels both cathartic and devastating.
