Album Notes

Mortalitas “The Outer Edge of inside” Vol. 1
by: Future

Mortalitas "The Outer of Inside”, Vol. 1, is comparable to a mini-series, where each episode can be viewed both on its own as well as part of the larger series. Contextually, this allows for a wide range of music styles and interpretations. Just when you think you've finally cracked the code of the album, everything changes, and the best part of it is the bands adeptness at performing entirely different musical genres. Mortalitas transforms from jam-band to funk-rock to rap/spoken word and never skips a beat. Tactical guitar work, a truckload of hooks and downright inspired drums are backed up with driving bass that works as the unifying factor within the music. There's something for everyone on this album, but the pieces are broken up and redistributed in a way that lets the individual talents to the band shine without overwhelming the sound as a whole.
