Das Albumcover stammt von "Worthless".Als ersten Eindruck könnt ihr die Single und Album-Opener "Matins" unten anchecken.
» The new work promises to be one of the darkest and most oppressive albums in the band's unparalleled repertoire.
Thematically 'Mendacium' bestows an intriguing concept and story. It tells the tale of a 14th century elder Benedictine monk with malady from illness preventing him from leaving his room within the monastery he dwells within. His faith and service to God can never be satiated. Slowly declining in health and sleepless from continuous pain, the monk encounters a hideous entity emerging through a tear in reality. The story questions, is the torment of this monk by each passing hour being inflicted by this entity or is it all within his own mind? «
