- Second album from the Finnish Doom Masters!! Forget CATHEDRAL and PENTAGRAM!! Rock solid hour of molten riffs and sophisticated and subtle songwriting propelled by the incredible vocals of Vesa Lampi, arguably Metal's finest vocalist since Messiah Marcolin of Candlemass. The band offers classic Slow-Motion Doom sounds, often with Hard Rock/Heavy Metal touches. Combine the doomy feeling of TROUBLE, BLACK SABBATH, SAINT VITUS with touches of classic Hard Rock a la RAINBOW or UFO. A great art! One of the oldest active Finnish heavy metal bands!
Spiritus Mortis was formed in 1987. The first band in Finland to be called as a doom act. Founding members were brothers Teemu and Jussi Maijala. SM’s unique sound can be heard even from the very early demos. Growling bass, massive guitars and viciously thundering drums. Unique and unheard in Finland. Cult following was gained by reviews of demos and furious gigs. But in early ’90’s Finland was not ready for SM’s grim world. SM almost dried out in late ’90’s.
For a while in late ’90’s Tomi Murtomaki was in band as a lead singer but when original SM trio found Vesa Lampi to vocals things started to roll again. Vesa replaced Tomi in the beginning of year 2000. SM went straight to studio to record Demo 2000. It got great reviews in various Metal magazines around the world. Somewhere in the end of 2000 Veli-Matti Yli-Mayry joined SM as drummer. VP changed to guitar.
At the beginning of summer 2001 the band got their first offer to sign record deal. This deal disappeared in the air, not due SM. In January 2003 SM decided to go to studio to record debut album without any clue if any label will ever release it. After recordings Jarkko Seppala joined the band to replace Veli-Matti. Todays lineup was formed.
After sending some samples of metal to come, couple of labels approached and two of them offered record deal in the summer of 2003. SM decided to choose Rage of Achilles. Mistake number 2139 in SM’s path. Label went down soon after releasing SM debut.
Now it’s autumn 2005 and first-born son with Black Lotus Records will be coming out 2006. Hopefully the world is ready for unleashing the SM! So …. Looking thru’ the years back to ‘80’s ….. SM haven’t changed, the world has. Let’s see how this story continues!
