MYRKUR Shares “Skøgen Skulle Dø” on NPR. Debut Full-Length ‘M’ Out August 21st on Relapse Records

Myrkur has shared “Skøgen Skulle Dø” with NPR: “black metal that is at once savage and sylvan, capable of harrowing violence one moment and beauty the next”.

It’s her third single from M – the Danish black metal phenom‘s highly anticipated first full-length album due out in just one month on Relapse Records.  

M was recorded in various locations of Oslo, Norway (including a tomb in Emanuel Vigeland’s Museum) with co-producer Garm – the mastermind behind black metal legends Ulver.  On M, Myrkur achieves the grandiose heights that everyone hoped she would climb to.

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.

In case you missed it: Myrkur shared a stunning and visceral video, “Onde Børn” that was shot in the wild nature of Thy, Denmark. The piece visualizes a travel, a ritual and a birth that reveals to us the story of the genesis of Myrkur.
