REVIEW: Mortality - Demo 2002 (demo) Self-financed, 2002
6.5/10
Mortality - Demo 2002 (demo) - cover art Mortality was formed in 1994 in Colorado Springs, Colorado, USA, but they have apparently relocated to San Antonion, Texas, for some reason. They have been regognized both on a national and international level and have played shows with well known acts like Cannibal Corpse, Morbid Angel, Deicide and Cryptopsy. Mortality have however chose a path that is a little different from that of most other American brutal death metal bands. Instead of playing as fast and technical as possible they appear more powerful than many other of these bands. This is mostly thanks to the thunderous drumming which gives them an almost industrial edge similar to the mighty Fear Factory but with the musical roots still apparent as brutal death metal. Fear Factory is often a very monotonous sounding band and if it wasn't for the amazing vocals from Bell I doubt that they would have come very far. That is also the problem for Mortality. Their music is very intense, powerful and aggressive but it is lucky that this is only a three song demo beacuse that kind of drumming would become very annoying if there were ten more to come. Those of you who still want to experience something powerful that is different from most American death metal bands should check out Mortality because they are definitely an interesting band that should please fans of both Fear Factory and Cannibal Corpse.
