Sonorous Gothic Metal! First time on vinyl, featuring Morten Veland (Sirenia & ex-Tristania). Originally released in 2010, “Misere Mortem” marked the beginning of Mortemia, the solo project of former Tristania and Sirenia mastermind Morten Veland. Blending heavy riffs, dark symphonic arrangements, haunting choirs and Veland’s unmistakable growls, the album carries the spirit of classic Sirenia releases like “At Sixes and Sevens” and “An Elixir for Existence”, while presenting a darker and more stripped-down approach without female vocals. Tracks like “The Eye of the Storm” and “The Pain Infernal and the Fall Eternal” showcase strong songwriting, memorable melodies and a dense gothic atmosphere throughout. Entirely written and largely performed by Veland himself, “Misere Mortem” remains a solid entry in the Scandinavian Gothic Metal canon and a must for fans of Sirenia, Tristania and Trail of Tears. Now available for the first time on vinyl through Hammerheart Records! Tracklist: 1. The One I Once Was2. The Pain Infernal and the Fall Eternal3. The Eye of the Storm4. The Malice of Life´s Cruel Ways5. The Wheel of Fire6. The Chains That Wield My Mind7. The New Desire8. The Vile Bringer of Self Destructive Thoughts9. The Candle at the Tunnel´s End
