Mortal Love
Encyclopedia
Mortal Love is a Norwegian
metal band which is currently signed to Massacre Records
. Their sound makes combined use of soprano
and tenor
vocals, whilst placing emphasis on a consistent rhythm section with heavy guitars, piano and synthesizer melodies. Their first three releases, which lyrically dealt with love and failed relationships, were composed as a trilogy, as can be observed from combining the titles of the albums (All the Beauty
, I Have Lost
and Forever Will Be Gone
). The band released the final album of the trilogy on 22 September 2006. On July 2011, the band announced that they were going to take indefinite hiatus.
On November 21, 2010, the band posted on their website that Massacre Records declined to release their new album as it was "less guitar-heavy." As the album has not officially been recorded, the band explained that they were exploring their options, possibly having the record be a digital-only product.
