On May 23, Closed Casket Activities will give way to the next chapter of Age of Apocalypse in the form of In Oblivion — masters of bridging soaring vocal performances with driving instrumentation. The band are in a lane of their own and In Oblivion expands on the band's uniqueness, as lead single Mortal Coil can share.


Frontman Dylan Kaplowitz comments on the track:


"'Mortal Coil' deals with the themes of loss and how one navigates grief or betrayal. It expresses that we all have to follow these paths of life, however difficult, but we don't have to navigate these hardships alone... The music video follows a mother retelling the story of how she met the father of her daughter. Her retelling is kind of mythic and embellished, which I feel we tend to do when we tell stories to kids. I definitely just ripped off some of my favorite directors shot-wise and just had a lot of fun with it. Jack and I were adamant about shooting on 16mm. I think it pays homage to the music videos we saw as kids from the 90's and how vibrant and textural they were."


Stream Mortal Coil below and pre-order the record via Closed Casket.
