As we reported earlier, Mortiis has announced the release of “Spirit Of Rebellion”, a re-interpreted expansion and continuation of the 1994 Era I classic “Ånden som Gjorde Opprør”. “Spirit Of Rebellion” is set for release on January 24th, 2020 via Omnipresence Productions / Dead Seed Productions.

Today Mortiis launched a brand new album teaser for “Spirit Of Rebellion” which you can see below.

Mortiis: “I had to fend off a lot of demons to get to this point. They’ll be back, they always come back, but at least my vision is no longer clouded…When I was working on re-interpreting my old music for the Cold Meat Industry festival in Stockholm almost two years ago, I had no idea that I´d eventually create an (almost) new record, nor that a section of it would be used for my first Dungeon Synth video since 1996. But here we are.”

Check also the recently released video clip for “Visions of an Ancient Future” which gives a first taste of things to come for the re-interpreted music of “Spirit Of Rebellion”.

Why we ask

Advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations we have not put up a paywall, and we refuse to add annoying advertising, so we need to ask for your help. Side-Line’s independent journalism takes time, money and hard work to produce, and we do it to push the artists we like, who are equally fighting to survive.
