Mortiis' first experiment with industrial/pop is worth taking a listen to. Flux/Mental Maelstrom is especially powerful, and Parasite God is catchy, if a bit goofy. The whole thing might seem slightly less embarrassing if he sang in his native Norwegian instead of English.
I'd describe this Mortiis release as gothic-y minor key powerful electronic industrial influenced hard rock with good tunes, good beats, overall excellent creativity, nice hooks, and good production - I really like this album as you might guess and recommend it highly! (On a musical level, that is. I'm afraid I don't like the lyrics, which reflect alienation, negativity and darkness...interestingly I feel the power and drama of the music negates the negativity of the lyrics!) I'm a big fan of gothic symphonic music like Therion, and though this is electronic, it has that same sort of vibe.
when you want something dark and heavy but not something that will freak you out. i thought it was cheesy when i first heard it, but i had to get pulled into his universe to really appreciate it. more like goth/darkwave than metal.
