Finnish death metal band whose only full-length album, Dances From Left (1993), showed strong thrash influences and received criticism for stiff, robotic production and repetitive riffs; the band faced label problems and disbanded by the end of the 20th century.

Dances From Left was released in 1993; the band is described in reviews as part of the Finnish death metal scene but stylistically distinct.

One DeBaser review (GIASSON) criticizes Mordicus's 1993 album Dances From Left for robotic production, repetitive riffs and a strong thrash influence. The review highlights two tracks—"Blood Under Ice" and "Christicide"—as the only notable moments. The reviewer notes label problems and that the band disbanded by the end of the 20th century.

For:Listeners of early 1990s death metal and thrash-influenced metal; collectors of obscure Finnish metal releases.

 Despite their history being similar to that of their compatriot groups, Mordicus are a white fly, or a black sheep if you prefer, within the Finnish death metal scene; this is certainly demonstrated by their only album "Dances From Left," released in 1993 after the usual series of demos and EPs.
