Limited Edition Prints by Aaron
November 6 2009
Anyone intrigued by the artwork of Aaron Stainthorpe may be interested to learn that a small selection of Limited Edition prints are becoming available on his web site www.azzron.com. This ties in rather nicely with the news that My Dying Bride album covers will also be available as Limited Edition prints next year as part of the bands 20th anniversary celebrations. These will be available from the new official web store which the band hope to launch early in 2010.
Bring Me Victory EP: Release & Pre-order

Bring Me Victory EP Finished
August 27 2009
My Dying Bride have completed the recording of the new EP "Bring Me Victory". The track list
is as follows:
- Bring Me Victory
- Scarborough Fair
- Failure
- Vast Choirs - Live at Graspop 2008
A new video will complement the release which will hopefully be around late
October.
'Scarborough Fair' is a traditional English folk song without specific origin but was made popular by Simon and Garfunkel in 1966. My Dying Bride's version will feature two new introductory verses written by Aaron and will naturally feature the bands usual epic style with violins and crushing guitars. 'Failure' was originally written by Swans and has been a favourite within the MDB camp for many years; it was only a matter of time before the band made their own version of this especially miserable number.
New EP in the Making
August 10 2009
My Dying Bride have been busy in the Future Works studio, recording material for a new EP release, titled Bring Me Victory. Two covers, one of the traditional 'Scarborough Fair' and a cover of 'Failure' by the Swans, will be part of this new EP. A new video has been completed as well to support the release.
An October release date has been pencilled in but this may be put back a little depending on how the last days of recording go!
More as we get it.

MDB and Matamp Guitar Amplifiers
July 3 2009
We are proud to announce a new partnership between My Dying Bride and the
legendary UK guitar amplification company Matamp. The imminent European
tour shall be powered by a couple of custom, hand-built, valve guitar
amplifiers played by Andrew and Hamish. After visiting the showroom of
Matamp headquarters, Hamish reported, "these amps are so inspiring, and
the build quality is such that the amps are as heavy as the riffs we play!
Pity the backs of our techs! We look forward to using them on tour, and
also in the studio in the future!"
Check out Matamp and My Dying Bride at one of these venues
Line Up Change
June 9 2009
This announcement just in:
Katie is no longer taking part in My Dying Bride. After confirming to play all of the shows we presently have booked she decided she did not want to do them, stating the reason being as "I want to concentrate on my career". She is presently a part time psychology student. So make of that what you will.
The kind chap who came in to replace her is called Shaun Macgowan. He has been rehearsing with us for no time at all and has shown great commitment already. He will not be being classed as a full time member until he has passed his probationary period with us, which is now 30 years. If you would like to welcome Shaun in the only way MDB fans can, that would be a great test of his character. And by 'the only way' I mean to complain that he is not Martin. For ever.
The band overall are saddened by the line up change, we think more for you than us. But as anyone who saw the show at the Wave Gotik in Leipzig will confirm, we have lost nothing.
