Amortem is Finnish industrial metal band Ruoska's fourth album, and was released on June 14 2006. The meaning of this title is unclear, especially bacause all of Ruoska's lyrics are in Finnish and "Amortem" doesn't have any meaning in Finnish, but it is probably a combination of both latin words "Amor" (Love) and "Mortem" (Death).
