MORTIIS To Be Featured On Norwegian Television Show: Video Clip Available

February 18, 2006

Norway's MORTIIS will be featured on an episode of the Norwegian television show "Lydverket" on Wednesday, March 1.

The subject of the program is masks and images in rock music and MORTIIS' prosthetic-enhanced frontman made the band an obvious choice for the program. Noted for his unique image, the frontman of the same name began wearing a full mask as part of the full MORTIIS concept. "Lydverket" captures Mortiis years later as the concept has evolved and Mortiis has begun removing the mask during live shows.

The "Lydverket" crew followed MORTIIS for nine months, filming and interviewing the band numerous times on tour in England and Norway and at photo shoots.

"Lydverket" (Norwegian for "soundworks") is Norway's biggest and most respected music program with an average of 150,000 viewers and airs on the country's largest channel.

The episode will also include SLIPKNOT, KISS' first manager Bill Aucoin, and ALICE COOPER, among others.

This episode of "Lydverket" will first air on NRK1 on Wednesday, March 1 at 23.10 (11:10 p.m.) and will re-play on NRK2 Sunday, March 5.

Check out a short clip from the "Lydverket" episode at this location.

MORTIIS is currently working on new material. A follow-up to last year's "The Grudge" is planned for this year.
