MORTIFICATION - US Tour Postponed; European Tour Going Ahead
July 5, 2007, 17 years ago
Vocalist/bassist Steve Rowe from Aussie-based Christian death metallers MORTIFICATION has issued the following update:
"Hello once again Mortification and Rowe Productions supporters. Yes! They are finally here! The new Mortification Live Humanitarian CD and the re-issue of Mortification's '91 self-titled album are both in the Soundmass.com store ready for you to order. We are very pleased with the production that we achieved on Live Humanitarian - very big and very REAL sounding. It was great to self-produce this release along with Mick Jelinic. Recorded live at the Imax Theatre in Perth, Australia, the venue was perfect for capturing a huge live sound. This is not an automatic festival crowd, either, but a true Mortification concert. Just us, on the level, with our true metal brothers and sisters. Special thanks goes to our awesome support network in Perth, especially Vaughan Gregory from Grave Forsaken, Steve Mullen and Dave Kilgallon from Scourged Flesh (make sure you pick up the debut Grave Forsaken and Scourged Flesh CDs from the store if you have not already done so).The reissue of '91s self-titled album is a ripper too! Remastered, it is a special limited edition digipak release (1000 copies) with killer artwork. The front cover is faithfully restored from the original "gory" artwork by Jayson Sherlock. So do yourself and your neighbors a favour and jump into the Soundmass.com store to pick up "Live Humanitarian" and the self-titled by Mortification (pictured in the June update below), as well as both the Grave Forsaken and Scourged Flesh CDs (at new special prices). Special thanks to all the people who pre-ordered - your orders are on their way to your hungry ears. The Live Humanitarian DVD is not too far away either - stay tuned for further news in coming updates.
On a lower note, the US section of our proposed Tour has been postponed at this stage due to time restraints in securing Performance Visas. We hope to be back in the US as soon as it becomes feasible. All good things come to those that wait. The European Tour is 100% going ahead with these seven shows:
November
2 - Bern, Switzerland3 - Zurich, Switzerland
4 - Eschwege, Germany
7 - Bielefeld, Germany
8 - Amsterdam, Holland
9 - Oslo, Norway
10 - Stuttgart, Germany
We hope to catch up with all our European fans in these countries and from beyond. Keep watching this space for venue and time details."
