The band has the following to say about "The Pulse Of Mourning":"The Pulse of Mourning is a logical next step for Thurisaz after 2011's"The Cimmerian Years", but also a return to the rawness of 2007's "Circadian Rhythm". Once again we tried to create a very diverse album in which the many aspects of desillusion and bitterness are passing by."
