MORTIIS - Some Kind Of Heroin Advance Tracks Available
March 7, 2007, 17 years ago
MORTIIS has made a selection of advance tracks from the upcoming remix album Some Kind Of Heroin available via the band's dedicated MySpace page.
The album, which features tracks from The Grudge, reconstructed by a number of artists including The Kovenant, PIG, Funker Vogt, In The Nursery, Girls Under Glass and more, will see a European release on April 16th (Earache).
Commenting on the remixed material, Mortiis described the thought process behind Some Kind of Heroin: "I had remixed several of these artists for their releases earlier so it was really only a matter of bringing out the baseball bat and start yelling 'payback time!' - others I would contact direct and work out deals with. This album mostly came together through mutual contacts, sending out emails or calling up and asking if they wanted to be part of it. Bands like Girls Under Glass and Gothminister I had met and am friends with. So we knew that would work out great."
The streaming advance tracks provide a sense of the diversity the album offers, and give fans a chance to check out other artists take on the Mortiis sound long before the album goes on sale.
Mortiis is on tour with DEATHSTARS around Europe in April.
