My Dying Bride also used Bennett\'s services in 2005 when the band played live with John Bennett behind the kit.
According to the band, at least five songs have already been recorded with more in the pipeline. No details on song or album titles are available, yet.
My Dying Bride\'s second DVD, \"Sinamorata\", was released in August 2005 via Peaceville. The disc included live footage (12 songs) shot on November 2, 2003 in Antwerpen, Belgium, as well as backstage extras, promotional video clips, two videos made by My Dying Bride fans, and a photo gallery featuring fan-created artwork inspired by the band\'s music.
My Dying Bride\'s eighth studio album, \"Songs of Darkness, Words of Light\", was released in February 2004 through Peaceville Records. The follow-up to 2001\'s \"The Dreadful Hours\" was recorded and mixed at Academy Studio in Dewsbury, West Yorkshire with producer Mags.
