Lisbon-based doom/death metal band My Dementia today unveil their grieving debut full-length, Premonição: Só Me Arrependo Do Que Não Vivi, ahead of its official release this Thursday May 8th, via Caverna Abismal Records.  Pre-orders are now available at this location.



The album is now streaming exclusively at Invisible Oranges, who praised it, saying: “Led by burly, forceful growls and backed by a rhythm section that studiously avoids overplaying, the band's debut full length lays bare not only the powerful bones of their sound and their striking arrangements, but the heartfelt passion behind the record.”





The band comments: "This album is deeply personal to us. It has become a posthumous release after the passing of our frontman, who left us shortly after the mixing process and before the album could see the light of day. The title — Premonição, translated to Premonition in English — now carries a heavier meaning, as his lyrics eerily foreshadowed the events that followed.


Musically, the listener will be immersed in the crushing weight of doom and in the nostalgia of the early ’90s death/doom scene: slow-tempo melancholy interspersed with ominous, aggressive death riffs."



Blending the bleak intensity of death metal with the somber weight of doom, this record pushes the band’s emotional core to tragic new depths. The themes explored in the lyrics, written before the album’s completion, now feel hauntingly prophetic.



Shortly after finishing the album’s production, guitarist/vocalist Miguel Carneiro tragically passed away, leaving behind a legacy that now finds its voice in this final recording. The album stands not only as a testament to the band’s artistic evolution but also as a deeply personal tribute to Miguel — immortalizing his voice, his pain, and his vision.
