Little Rock (AR) - Heavy Metal trio MORTALUS have released "The FiXX," the second single from forthcoming sophomore album We Are Human. Check out the single at mortalus.bandcamp.com/track/
MORTALUS will release We Are Human on February 24. An album teaser video is available at youtu.be/H5kop6yqgLA
MORTALUS is equal parts classic and modern, heavy and melodic, power and finesse, focused and loose. We Are Human
is a showcase of all parts. It has been a whirlwind since the last
album was released. Impactful events such as a global pandemic,
political and worldwide turmoil, addiction, inequality and prejudice,
losing family members, decayed friendships, and re-evaluation of one’s
own perspective all went into the making of We Are Human. The
band takes its craft very seriously, but by the time the album closes,
the listener will know that they still like to have a little fun while
they're at it.
FFO: Anthrax, D.R.I., Evergrey, Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, Metallica, Nightwish, Slayer

BIO:
Heavy Metal. It's a term
used to describe a genre of music that, in the 21st century, is as
expansive as an ocean, with as many subgenre titles as there are species
and all the seas. For Mortalus, their brand of metal is an ocean that can be deep and dark, pristine and beautiful, or full on, hull-crushing fury.
The members of Mortalus
are students of their craft, striving to be always at the top of their
game. Being described as "modern old school" isn't much of a stretch.
The influences are vast expanses, ranging from the obvious, like "The
Big Four," Judas Priest and Iron Maiden, to Evergrey, D.R.I., Nightwish,
and Toto.
The three metalheads of Mortalus
wear the title as a badge of honor. Fronted by the Cat 5 hurricane
known as "Metal" Michelle Gann, she would be impressive enough as a lead
vocalist if not for her beautifully intense guitar skills. Bassist and
vocalist Bryan "Bedrock" Bedgood brings in a quirky, melodic style to
the ocean bed low end. Drummer Patrick "Gumbo" Mahoney possesses
battleship power and intensity behind the kit. Long time a quartet,
Mortalus has since become a trio, writing and recording music filled
with passion, melody, and yes, power.
