Every time a Norwegian band steps out of the traditional and already hoary black-metal box, it becomes a noteworthy occasion. Yet, in case of Doctor Midnight & The Mercy Cult, this wasn’t the main point of attraction. It’s the line up that caught the attention of the public in the first place. The band happens to be fronted by the legendary Hank von Helvete, whom you might have seen on stage with another magnificent Norwegian act – Turbonegro. DMTMC’s honorary axemen are: Anders Odden (Satyricon, Apoptygma Berzerk, Celtic Frost, etc.), Audun Stengel (The Kovenant, Apoptygma Berzerk), Tim Skold on bass (Marilyn Manson, KMFDM, etc.) and David Husvik (Extol) on drums.
Doctor Midnight & The Mercy Cult announced a string of live shows where the band is going to perform their new material. The first concert took place at DOM club in Helsinki on May 11. Needless to say we were there to witness this glorious event.
