Mortal Treason is an American Christian metal band from the Huntsville, Alabama area. Their first album A Call to the Martyrs was released in 2004. Then after major lineup changes, its second album Sunrise Over a Sea of Blood was released in 2005. After a quick tour, Mortal Treason decided to disband. On December 8, 2014, The original members (minus one, plus one) returned and are currently writing new material. The band is currently on a brief hiatus due to family issues and jobs and will reconvene when possible.
Mortal Treason has also contributed two songs "Khampa Nomads" and "War Within" from their debut album A Call to the Martyrs to the compilation CD Flicker Rocks Harder.
Mortal Treason was founded in Hartselle, Alabama and released two albums under Flicker Records. Their first album was titled A Call to the Martyrs and had more of a traditional metalcore style. Their second album was titled Sunrise Over a Sea of Blood, which contained elements of death metal.
Members of the band said that they believed "God has something else planned for us", but there were also rumors of label problems. On September 11, 2005 Seth Kimbrough officially announced their disestablishment.
