"In collaboration with Decibel Magazine we present to you the second single "Apathetic Tongues"
Guitarist & vocalist Georgios Maxouris comments on the subject matter:
"I think the moment that it became clear to me that I was suicidal was when I felt like I couldn't cope with the anguish and burden of life, as well as when the smallest details of daily life started to give me ideas on how to end it all. First I started to wonder if the balcony would be high enough, and then before I knew it, the wondering started to become longing, and the longing started to turn into actions.
"I can't recall much of my suicide attempts, except the duality I was feeling the moment I put the rope around my neck, or the moment I pushed a knife against my throat.
"Even though I didn't want to die, I felt it was like the only way to escape the unbearable suffering. Ironically, those moments made me realize how valuable life is. It took me a long time to realize it, and I still think I'm somehow battling to comprehend it, but something tells me that there's so much to live for, and so much to fight for."

"Out from a concept of misery and suffering, our feeble and dying world is the subject of a new hymn to its demise. 'Mortal Coil' is Dödsrit's third full-length, featured on a yet short career though wholly filled with soul drenching moments. Featuring four tracks, Dödsrit's 'Mortal Coil' hails the smothering ashes of purgatory's flames by forging a wall of soul tearing riffing, blistering belligerence conjoining melody with aggression, a genuine blaze of cacophony and heart wrenching melancholy."
