Article description: (description ) This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | Mortiis is a band from Notodden, Norway fronted by Håvard Ellefsen (former member of the Black Metal band Emperor), who is also known as the namesake of the band. The name is a misspelling of the word 'mortis', which is the pronunciation used by the band. However, Mortiis started as the solo project of Ellefsen as a means to convey a story. This aspect was lost over time and Mortiis slowly formed into a band. Between 1993 and 1999 the solo project focused on dark ambient music, until 2001's The Smell of Rain in which it became more Industrial sounding. With the release of The Grudge Mortiis became an official band rather than a solo project, and the music shifted toward Industrial Metal. |
