Free Album Download: Mortiis Releases A Free Album

Heavy Metal band Mortiis has outdone themselves. They have released a full-length, completely FREE downloadable album! The new album is titled 'Perfectly Defect'. Releasing it as a free download was decided after a lot of consideration. The band explained about that decision, "The new model of the music business is important to keep in mind; there´s a new mentality out there in terms of how people acquire their music now. For better or worse, music seems to have become a medium a lot of people aren´t prepared to pay for in the old fashioned way. So, we paid to record it out of our own pockets 'cos we thought it would be a really cool gift to our fans that have been waiting around for ages for something new to come out."

Mortiis spent most of the past two years writing and recording the album 'The Great Deceiver', which was a long-awaited follow up to 2004's 'The Grudge', and the 2007 remix album, 'Some Kind of Heroin'.

The band goes on to say, "When we were writing, we were coming up with all sorts of inspired stuff, a really varied collection of music. I think we really captured a cool vibe here. It's not easy marrying anger with melody, but I believe we did it. The songs on Perfectly Defect were created across a period of time, and I believe it shows in terms of what inspired these songs. They're rather soundtracky in a dark and sometimes
bombastic way."

The concept of digital distribution has opened up a whole new empowerment for Mortiis, allowing them artist control over their own artistic destiny.
