Swedish doomsters MORTALICUM have been confirmed for the 4th edition of prestigious 'Malta Doom Metal' festival (www.facebook.com/pages/Malta-Doom-Metal), that will take place on November 02-03 on this Mediterranean island.
They will share the stage with a plethora of national and international Doom Metal bands, including the recently reformed SORCERER (Sweden), DAWN OF WINTER (Germany), THE BLACK (Italy), SEMLAH (Sweden), FORSAKEN (Malta), HOODED PRIEST (Netherlands), CHILDREN OF DOOM (France), IRON VOID (UK) and FOREST STREAM (Russia), to name but a few.
"The Endtime Prophecy" is the 2nd full-length album of the band, released by Metal On Metal Records on April 27th this year. MORTALICUM once again proved the quality of Swedish Metal, bringing tons of classy and vintage sounding Doom Metal mixed with early ’80s Heavy Metal and '70s Hard Rock, with emphasis on melody, soulful guitar solos and singing, and massive doomy riffs. The band’s bass player and composer, Patrick Backlund, prepared a clip for the opening song on the CD, "My Dying Soul" - check it below.
