Depressive black metallers **GHOST BATH **have emerged from beyond the veil with their new album, ***Rose Thorn Necklace, ***which will be released on May 9th via** Nuclear Blast Records.  **The band, in their 12th year of existence, are not in the business of softening the edges. Rather, the frontman (**Nameless **aka** Dennis Mikula**) is leaning more toward his antisocial traits, serrated like a rusty knife yet beautifully honed over years of toil.

The band unveil the atmospheric second single, **‘Well, I Tried Drowning’**. Watch the video directed by **[Claudio Marino](https://nuclearblast.us19.list-manage.com/track/click?u=f52be22febdeb73950b267672&id=0466500c1f&e=8eb7da516a)**** **of** Artax Film**.

**GHOST BATH **comments, “‘Well, I Tried Drowning’ is a plea for death, not by my own hand but for someone else to do the courtesy as I have not been able to bring myself to do. It is a fantasy -rooted in wishful thinking- that someone would cut my throat in my sleep, finally ending my life as I drown in my own blood. Wish fulfillment in blunt, gory detail.”

***Rose Thorn Necklace ***was recorded in 2024 between January and June. The drums were recorded and engineered by **Mike Heller** at**Heaven and Heller Studios **while the remaining sections were completed by **Nameless (Dennis Mikula)** at his home studio. The album was mixed and mastered by Jack Shirley. The cover artwork was created by **Ksenija Tarasova**. Free from the ***Moonlover***–***Starmourner***–***Self Loather ***conceptual trilogy, sole proprietor **Nameless** (aka **Dennis Mikula**) explores the most intense and introspective music from **GHOST BATH**’s oeuvre, advancing with blackened blasts and melancholic movements while moving his only child forward into the unknown.
