Mortification is an Australian Christian extreme metal band. As one of the first and most successful Christian extreme metal bands in the world, they serve as inspiration for many of today's Christian metal bands. The group was formed in 1990 from the ashes of Christian power metal band Lightforce by Steve Rowe, Cameron Hall and Jayson Sherlock. Over the years Mortification has released over twenty records and several videos on major record labels such as Nuclear Blast.

  • Mortification is an Australian Christian extreme metal band. As one of the first and most successful Christian extreme metal bands in the world, they serve as inspiration for many of today's Christian metal bands. The group was formed in 1990 from the ashes of Christian power metal band Lightforce by Steve Rowe, Cameron Hall and Jayson Sherlock. Over the years Mortification has released over twenty records and several videos on major record labels such as Nuclear Blast. During the early 1990s Mortification "belonged to the elite of the death metal movement," especially with their widely praised album Scrolls of the Megilloth. After the departure of their original drummer Mortification began experimenting with groove metal, hardcore punk and power metal. They achieved notable commercial success with Blood World, though the critics have not been interested in the band after the 1996's critically acclaimed EnVision EvAngelene. Despite critical backlash, the band has maintained its status as "some kind of superstars in the Christian metal scene," and have been called in the mainstream media as "a legend in the death metal scene. " They returned to their deathrash roots on the 2004's Brain Cleaner album.
  • Mortification ist eine christliche Metal-Band aus Australien rund um Sänger und Bassisten Steve Rowe. Genauer lässt sich die Musik in die Unterkategorien Death Metal und Thrash Metal einteilen. Neueres Material dagegen (ab ca. '98) hat einen deutlichen Hardcore-Einschlag. Mortification haben in der Metalszene einen hohen Bekanntheitsgrad erreicht. Der Durchbruch gelang der Band mit dem Album "Scrolls of the Megilloth", das in vielen Heavy Metal-Zeitschriften sehr gute Kritiken erhielt und ihnen auf internationaler Ebene Aufmerksamkeit verschaffte.
  • Mortification es una banda australiana de heavy metal formada en 1990 a partir del grupo Lightforce, formada en los años 80. La banda no tiene un estilo de música particular ya que ha probado con muchos estilos, entre ellos el death metal, thrash metal, power metal. Mortification había sido una de las primeras bandas de metal cristiano extremo. La manera en que combinó la fe cristiana con la pesadez de la música era única y muchas de las bandas del metal cristiano de hoy fueron inspiradas por Mortification.
  • Mortification on sekä menestynein australialainen extreme metal -yhtye, että maailman menestynein kristillinen extreme metal -ryhmä. Yhtye on julkaissut vuosien varrella lähes parikymmentä levyä, joista tunnetuin on vuoden 1992 kaoottinen ja raaka death-grind-albumi Scrolls of the Megilloth. Se on niin merkittävä albumi, että The Metal Observerin mukaan yhtye "kuului death metal -suuntauksen parhaimmistoon 1990-luvun alussa". Vuoden 1993 Post Momentary Afflictionin jälkeen alkuperäinen rumpali Jayson Sherlock jätti yhtyeen, ja Mortification alkoi yhdistellä aineksia hardcore punkista, groove metalista, thrash metalista sekä perinteisestä metallista. Vuoden 1994 Bloodworld on yhtyeen kaupallisesti menestynein julkaisu. Ajanjaksolle mahtuu myös yhtyeen ainoan alkuperäisjäsenen ja johtohahmon Steve Rowen leukemiaan sairastuminen, ja siitä pari vuotta vienyt täysi toipuminen. Yhtye julkaisee tuotoksiaan markkinoille tasaiseen tahtiin, vaikka ainakaan kriitikkoja eivät ole enää innostaneet julkaisut vuoden 1996 EnVision EvAngelenen jälkeen. Vuosien jälkeen yhtye on säilyttänyt asemansa "jonkinlaisena supertähtenä kristillisissä metallipiireissä", ja Mortificationia on kutsuttu nykyisissä viestimissä "death metal -piirien legendaksi". Yhtye palasi vanhaan deathrash-tyyliinsä albumillaan Erasing the Goblin.

  • Mortification is een Australische deathmetal band. Deze bandnaam, die zelfkastijding betekent, is voortgekomen uit het christelijke principe van “afsterven aan jezelf en opleven met Christus”. Mortification brengt sinds 1990 deathmetal albums uit die een christelijke boodschap uit dragen. Het album waar zij wereldwijd in metal-wereld de aandacht mee trokken was Scrolls of the Megilloth. Het is veruit het zwaarste album dat Mortification in de eerste tien jaar van haar bestaan heeft gemaakt. Dit album is een mix van death en grind metal. Triumph of Mercy is een album dat tekstueel beïnvloed is door het feit dat Steve Rowe in die tijd tegen de medische verwachtingen in van kanker genezen werd. Steve Rowe is de voortrekker van de band en heeft ook een eigen platenlabel genaamd Rowe Productions waaronder andere bands muziek uitbrengen.
