So Mortal Be were a Doom Metal band from Doncaster, South Yorks, England. We played Doom Metal influenced by Black Sabbath, Cathedral, Pentagram, The Obsessed, Sleep, Electric Wizard and Saint Vitus. These are the main bands that made us want to play this style.
So Mortal Be’s origins lie in the original power trio line up of Jim Stanley(drums), Steve Wilson (guitar and vocals) and Jim Phaily (Bass and Vocals) This initial period garnered a successful 4-track E.P. entitled “Initiation into Nothingness."

Formed in 2004 Doncaster and named after a Spirit Caravan song, the band featured Steve Wilson (Iron Void & Doomanoid Records) on guitar and vocals. These are the only studio recordings by the band. They played one last show after this session was recorded before splitting up.
Split-up in July 2008. Some members went on to play in Iron Void and Cosmic Funeral.

The rare 2006 studio demo EP from So Mortal Be, self released as a demo on home made CD-R, features four studio tracks, including pre-Iron Void versions of Suicide Sorcerer and Dead Planet. Two previously unreleased rehearsal recordings are also included.
