The undisputed inventor of dungeon synth, Mortiis, unleashed his latest full length album Spirit Of Rebellion - which is a re-interpreted expansion and continuation of the 1994 Era I classic Ånden som Gjorde Opprør - at the beginning of the year via Omnipresence Productions / Dead Seed Productions.

In support of the new album, Mortiis will hit the road this autumn with none other than black metal pioneers, Mayhem. The extensive EU tour aptly named Northern Ritual starts in late September and runs throughout October visiting, 14 different countries across Europe, including 6 UK / Ireland dates.

Mortiis comments: "The time has come for The Old One to join forces with The Ancient Ones - on my next Era I run I will join Mayhem on their Northern Ritual tour this autumn! I hope you are ready!"
