BIO:

Born from the creative mind of rhythm guitarist David Paquette, Mortor began as a solo project that soon turned into a full-fledged band following Paquette’s move from Montreal to Ottawa.

Founded in 2008, Mortor began sculpting and fine-tuning their metal sound while writing and playing live shows with one goal in mind: to bombard the world of extreme metal with their fresh, raw sound.

To date, the band has released two albums, ‘Metal Ride’ (2010) and Shoot ‘em Up (2012). A forthcoming record, ‘Burn up the Dead’, is currently under production with a new lineup.
