Today, MENTAL CRUELTY have released a new reimaged single taken from their upcoming digital deluxe edition of the album Zwielicht out December 13th. Fans can now stream and watch the visualizer for “Mortal Shells (Orchestral Version)”.
Mental Cruelty comments on the new song: “MORTAL SHELLS first made its debut on our record ZWIELICHT, capturing the essence of epic soundscapes that combine both modern and classical influences. The original track is rich in dynamics, mood, and atmosphere, weaving together cinematic drama with subtle complexity. Now, reimagined as a full orchestral piece by our very own guitarist Marvin Kessler, MORTAL SHELLS has evolved into something even more powerful and emotionally charged.
Drawing inspiration from the legendary works of John Williams, Richard Wagner, and Howard Shore, this orchestral version amplifies the grandeur and depth of the original. The sweeping strings, majestic brass, and rhythmic intensity not only enhance the existing soundscape but also showcase the track’s natural affinity for orchestral adaptation. It's a perfect union of cinematic storytelling and symphonic tradition, embodying the spirit of these great masters while standing on its own as a monumental piece”.
