Release Notes:
--------------
Before virtually introducing industrial music to CCM, Jyro and Jerome
formed the band Mortal Wish in 1988 with Wilson Peralta and Ray Tongpo.
The group released a demo cassette, but later shortened the name and
dropped Peralta and Tongpo. Mortal's first album, Lusis, appeared in
1992 on the Intense label; the single "Mytho-X" became a hit on the
Christian metal charts and the duo were named the best new band of 1992
in a CCM readers' poll. Mortal added more guitars for 1993's Fathom,
but discontinued the group just before recording Wake, which was
released the following year. Nevertheless, another final album appeared
in 1996. The duo continue to produce as Blood (with Mark Rodriguez) and
record as Fold Zandura, and have released a live Mortal EP, Intense
Live Series Vol. 5. A mellower Mortal side project called Pura is also
available on Intense. In 2002, Mortal returned to the scene after
taking a year off. The funky grooves of Nu-En-Jin appeared in fall
2002.
