The bands first live performance was in January (2008) and from that day the band had played in most of the remarkable clubs of Vojvodina, and performed on some of the most remarkable festivals of the region. Mortero was always complimented for their approach of playing live, and music. In 2008, the band went in to Positive family studio, to record two songs for a compilation (DEMOnstracija mladosti).

The band received positive commentary from the jury, who were among the most important people of the music business of Serbia. But second place is second place… In April of 2009 the band was in Chainroom studio with the purpose of recording their first album. Shortly after having finished the work, Huba Tölgyesi left the band. But the replacemenet arrived quickly in the person of Stanislav Šaršanski (a.k.a. Buca).
