Sunrise Over a Sea of Blood is the second album from the Christian Deathcore band Mortal Treason. It is the first album to feature bassist TJ Alford, pianist Elizabeth Kimbrough, drummer Steve Robinson, and rhythm guitarist Adam Wright.
As indicated by the album's title, Sunrise Over a Sea of Blood covers serious and weighty issues. The title track, according to Kimbrough, "talks about the end times and how the world is going crazy. Most of the lyrics are about spiritual things that we go through everyday," he says. These songs provide an outlet through which Mortal Treason addresses tough topics the band encounters on a daily basis. One melody builds off another, telling a story, reaching a conclusion, and the ending isn't always happy.
The opening record is "Worst Case Scenario", a song about friends falling into drugs and other worldly evils, while "Abaddon" speaks specifically to child abuse, offering a word of hope. Other songs like "The Falling" and "Dig Your Own Grave" explore the repercussions of living life for oneself.
