Last night I was thinking about high school, college and the music I used to listen to, and then I thought to myself, what the hell happened to Mortiis? Not that I listened to them/him, but I remember they used to be mentioned all the time in Metal Hammer.
For those that don’t know, Mortiis is a Norwegian Industrial band (*cough* Nine Inch Nails rip-off band) fronted by a homeless gothic goblin with an extreme case of cherubism. At least that’s the conclusion I came to from seeing photos of him.
So what happened to them? Well after 5 minutes a lot of research, I found out that the band left, or were dropped by, their label, Earache, and they’ve since released albums for free download on their website. Well, there’s a new album on their website for download now anyways. Oh how the mighty disformed have fallen.
Check out their official site here.
