Today MYRKUR stuns us with her new video “Onde Børn“. It’s a visualization of a travel. A ritual. A birth. Filmed in the wild nature of Thy, Denmark, the video tells the story of the genesis of MYRKUR. It serves as the first visual component off of MYRKUR‘s debut full-length M due out this August on Relapse Records.
M – the Danish black metal phenom’s highly anticipated first full-length album. It was recorded in various locations of Oslo, Norway (including renowned artist Emanuel Vigeland’s Museum) with co-producer Garm – the mastermind behind black metal legends Ulver – M finds MYRKUR achieving the grandiose heights that everyone hoped she would climb to. The melodies are lush and the brutality devastating. M is a highly developed metal masterpiece that blends second-wave black metal, Nordic folk music,classical instrumentation and haunting choirs. Rounded out on record by members of Mayhem and Nidingr plus a guest appearance from Christopher Amott of Arch Enemy, MYRKUR has quickly established herself as one of the best and most intriguing acts in metal today.
This weekend, MYRKUR will perform her first ever live performance at Denmark’s Roskilde Festival alongside Deafheaven and Tombs. Numerous other festival appearances around Europe are planned throughout the year.
