MORTAL SIN: 'Blood Of My Enemies' Video Released

November 29, 2011

"Blood Of My Enemies", the new video from long-running Australian thrashers MORTAL SIN, can be seen below. The song comes off the band's new album, "Psychology Of Death", which was released in Europe on November 18 via NoiseArt Records. The effort includes the group's classic debut LP, "Mayhemic Destruction", as a bonus disc in the limited digipak version. The follow-up to 2007's "An Absence of Faith" was mixed with producer/engineer Darren "jENK" Jenkins and marks the recording debut of guitarist Ryan Huthnance, who replaced Mick Sultana.

Commented the band: "What we wanted to do was a simple thrash album.

"Sometimes you can get so caught up in the complexities of everything that you forget about what thrash is all about. This time around we said we wanted to go back to our roots, we were going to write an album like 'Mayhemic Destruction' simple old-school thrash!

"This is by far our fastest and heaviest album to date. We really wanted to grab people by the balls with this one!"

"Psychology Of Death" track listing:

01. Psychology Of Death
02. Blood Of My Enemies
03. Paralysed
04. Burned Into Your Soul
05. Deny
06. Doomed To Annihilation
07. Kingdom Of Pain
08. Down In The Pit
09. Hatred

Bonus CD "Mayhemic Destruction":

Singer Mat Maurer stated back in March 2010 about the creative process for the new CD, "We are notoriously slow writers, but many of you who may have heard the new song 'Deny' that we have been road-testing at our shows will agree that we could be onto something special here.

"Like many thrash bands, we feel strongly about our thrash roots and want to create an album of pure thrash. If we could combine KREATOR's 'Hordes Of Chaos', TESTAMENT's 'The Formation Of Damnation' and OVERKILL's newie 'Ironbound' into a huge melting pot, that would be the kind of album we wanna make!!"

MORTAL SIN in 2009 released a live album, "Into the Inferno (Live in Oslo)", via Riot! Entertainment. The CD, which contains the group's March 2008 performance in Oslo, Norway, was described by the band as "possibly the best live show MORTAL SIN have ever had recorded."

Once hailed as the next METALLICA, MORTAL SIN have become legends in their home country Australia, having been inducted into the Kerrang! Heavy Metal Hall of Fame in 2005 and being the only Australian band to have played with the big five of thrash METALLICA, SLAYER, ANTHRAX, MEGADETH and TESTAMENT on tours in Australia and overseas.
