The challengingly named Mors Principium Est (which roughly translates to "d**h is the beginning") hails from the town of Pori, Finland, and was formed in 1999. Their lineup was typically unstable early on, but eventually settled down to feature singer Ville Viljanen, guitarists Jori Haukio and Jarkko Kokko, keyboard player Toni Nummelin, ba**ist Teemu Heinola, and drummer Mikko Sipola for the recording of various demos. Quickly developing their sound, the group found a home with The End Records and issued their Inhumanity debut in 2003. ~ Ed Rivadavia, All Music Guide
