All tickets to the 2025 Decibel Magazine Tour, kicking off in March, are on sale now!

The Decibel Magazine Tour returns to the road in March! Tickets on sale Friday, December 20 at 10am local time.

This September Mortiis performs his groundbreaking 1993 album, Født Til Å Herske, in its entirety on tour in the U.S. but today the dungeon synth progenitor took time to serenade us with 40—that’s right, 40—albums that shaped his musical trajectory.

Cult Never Dies publishes a Z.A.S.T. zine anthology. We chat with the former editor, one Havard “Mortiis” Ellefsen, all about it.

The dark dungeon music progenitor returns to his “Era 1” form with this reimagining of 1995 classic Ånden som Gjorde Opprør.

On this week’s installment of a parrot reviewing new releases, bird meets troll.

The first of the dungeoneers, Mortiis bids us to look upon “A Dark Horizon.”

Win tickets to see Mortiis live next month!

Watch a new video from the godfather of dungeon synth, Mortiis.

Occasioned by the finally widely available and expanded reissue of his book, Secrets of My Kingdom: Return to Dimensions Unknown, we present an exclusive and candid interview with the godfather of dungeon synth, Mortiis.

In perhaps his most in-depth interview ever, Mortiis dives deep into his past as the unwitting progenitor of dungeon synth.

Neill Jameson explores synthesizers and the various metal-related genres of music that have sprung from the instrument.

Industrial outfits Mortiis and Godflesh collide on this remixed track from Mortiis’ 2016 release, The Great Deceiver. 

The Norwegian legend returns in style.
