MORTAL SIN Schedules Australian Dates

May 26, 2008

Vocalist Mat Maurer of the long-running Australian thrashers MORTAL SIN has issued the following update:

"It's been a while since we were down in Adelaide [Australia], so please come along to our show and support the Aussie scene!! We'll be at the Enigma Bar/War Room this Friday [May] 30th along with TRUTH CORRODED, SKINTILLA and SE BON KI RA. It will be an awesome night.

"On Saturday night, May 31st, we travel across to Melbourne and play at the Espy. It will be our first show at the Espy since 1996! Also playing are CONTRIVE, ANARCHSPHERE and ORDER OF TORMENT. I certainly won't miss it!

"These will be our last couple of interstate shows before we head off to play at Wacken Open Air festival in Germany, so beers and cheers will be the order of the night!"

Fan-filmed video footage of MORTAL SIN performing at the Metalmania festival on March 8, 2008 at Spodek in Katowice, Poland can be viewed below (courtesy of "tomiwild").

MORTAL SIN's tracks "Deadman Walking" and "Out of the Darkness", taken from the band's latest CD, "An Absence of Faith", will be featured in the upcoming Australian comedy/horrow film "I Still Know Who Many Runs You Scored Last Summer".

"An Absence of Faith" was released in Europe last November. According to a press release, the CD "is a rollercoaster ride, with enough twists and turns to jolt even the staunchest of heads. From the single 'Out of the Darkness' to the nine-minute epic 'Tears of Redemption - Lebanon Part II' and lyrics covering everything from politics, religion, child abuse and relationships MORTAL SIN have pulled a classic out of the hat for 2007."

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.
