1990 was a year that would forever change and have an impact on the Christian Metal scene. The world would see releases from some of the most seminal artists in the scene…
Vengeance Rising – Once Dead; Deliverance – Weapons of our Warfare; Believer – Sanity Obscure and Tourniquet – Stop the Bleeding just to name a few!
These albums would forever have an impact and leave their mark on the Christian Metal Scene. But one album and one album alone would turn the Christian Metal Scene upside down! Mortification’s ‘Break the Curse’ would hit the metal world like a raging storm!
This would be the world’s first introduction of the band that would go on to pave the way for Christian Death Metal bands to come! Touring the world over, releasing multiple albums and DVD’s, playing in front of thousands of raging metal fans across the globe! Bold and unashamed they would play anywhere and everywhere that would host them! Never afraid to speak their mind and let the world know their convictions!
Break the Curse was the initial release that would start it all, this release has long been out of print and a much sought after collectible for the Mortification fan! In celebration of the 20 year anniversary of this release Roxx Records is set to release a strictly Limited Edition 2 Disc Gold Letter Edition of ‘Break the Curse’.
