Mortem

Mortem is a death metal band formed in 1986 in Lima, Peru.

==Biography== Mortem is one of the oldest and most celebrated bands from the obscure Peruvian death metal scene. Founded by Fernán Nebiros and Alvaro Amduscias in July–August 1986, Mortem has been through several line-up changes as they toured South America and released a number of demos. Mortem released their debut album Demon Tales in 1996 after signing a record deal with Peruvian recordlabel Huasipungo Records. Demon Tales would be the second Peruvian metal album ever released, following the Hadez release ‘Aquelarre’ in 1993. Shortly after releasing Demon Tales Mortem was signed to German metal label Merciless Records which made Mortem the first Peruvian metal band ever to sign to a European label.
