Amongst other cool merch in the MORTIIS webstore you can find a few posters. This one is a photo I took at the Cold Meat Industry 30 year anniversary festival i Stockholm for about a year ago when he performed the “Era 1 ” set for the first time in ages.

It really does make a great poster:D The “Era 1” show was awesome btw. MORTIIS has done some extensive touring the past year and there´s still concerts coming up if you have missed out. Dates & venues HERE.

Dark Ambient/Darkwave from Germany.
“For those who don’t want to check Wikipedia: “Apoptose” describes the so called programmed cell death. It simply means that a cell dies when it is damaged or ill. This program works in nearly every living cell except for cancer cell that live on and on. When I was looking for a name for my musical project that was something that came to my mind. I especially love the literally meaning of the Greek word “Apoptosis”. It means leaves falling off trees. I still think that it fits perfectly to the topics and atmosphere of the music”

The second night, now in Stockholm. Left Gothenburg on an early train with my excellent travelling companions. Got stranded a couple of hours on the Central station before the Norwegians arrived so I could get to the venue with them. First time I went to Slaktkyrkan. The venue opened last february while I was still out of the country and it+s very close to Kraken. I really liked the place! Open courtyard and everything:) Next years Stockholm Slaughter will use both of the venues so it will work out really nice.
And SKOGEN totally ruled again! I do love that band. Great stuff. So for me, no supportbands this weekend. All equally fantastic with their specific own style. Couldn´t get any better:D
And also in Stockholm: not many mobile phones visible in the crowd:D A couple of Official clips below [Nordvis]

Grande Finale of the most excellent evening! “Havenless” as an extra treat with Grutle on iPad :D Great crowd also and very few mobile phones in sight (has that changed in general the past year or so when I´ve been out of the country?) Anyways It´s a good trend. But of course, no video clips to be found from the gigs.
Had so much fun, met so many awesome people including the ones who worked at the venue. The restaurant had an awesome vegetarian lunch buffet btw! So try it out if you ever visit Gothenburg!

Pt. 2 of a brilliant evening! Debut album in making which will be released in 2019 (Season of Mist).

I do love the Trelldom, Gorgoroth, God Seed stuff, tho. Hope they still keep at least some of it in their performances in the future.

Outside having a  smoke with Kristian. I always ask and he always patiently answers that he never smoked. Not once.
Still, he tags along. He´s the best:)

“Majestic” is one word to describe Skogen. A friend of mine used the word when talking about this band. Magnificent gig in Gothenburg!!
If you haven´t heard them before, you should check them out!

Man ska aldrig älta i gammalt, men detta var den krångligaste plåtningen ever med både egna fuckups och tekniska failures. Det tekniska handlade då om att objektivet hanterade inte autofokuset och eftersom jag bara kollade lite snabbt på ljuset i kameran så missade jag helt detta faktum ända tills jag drog upp allt i datorskärmen. Och nej, inga tidigare problem med AF. Det andra var nog bara om att jag nyligen bytt system helt och var inte alls så hemma i alla detaljer så det blev lite felbedömningar.
Egentligen borde man ha plåtat utomhus för utrymmets skull, men det skulle inte heller gjort mycket skillnad i slutändan. Uääähh surt det var. Och är fortfarande xD Blev en dyr reparation på objektivet…#neverforget #trippelkollaräckerinte

Omtagning fanns inte på kartan pga allt jobb som lades ner för den här dagen. Och Simon hade nog inte fler gitarrer att bränna upp heller xD
Men utöver all misär  så var det en kul dag med gamla bekanta och en jävla massa tråcklande med begränsad yta, mängder med kolsyreis, eld och allehanda roligheter:D Vid nått tillfälle spelade VALKYRJA nånstans i Europa och bilden var på display på en stor ljustavla utanför venuen. Åtminstone i mobilkamerafotot såg det riktigt bra ut :)
