FROM NOVEMBERS DOOM:
It has been brought to our attention that a piece of our music was used in conjunction with the images posted from the horrible event that took place in Russia involving murder and then suicide by the individual himself. All of us in Novembers Doom feel absolutely terrible for everyone involved. To the families and friends of all involved, our utmost and sincere apologies for the pain you are going through and we as a collective hope you find the strength to get through this unfortunate event.

We DO NOT and would NEVER condone this sort of use for our art and our music. We create the style of music we do, to reach people on an emotional level, and the thought of it being used for something like this sickens us beyond words. Association of this sort is something a band would never ask for.
If you’re an individual struggling with your own thoughts, please seek the help you need before turning to this sort of extreme and senseless violence.
Be kind, be well.
With heavy hearts,
Novembers Doom
