Danish one-woman black metal project Myrkur has opened up pre-orders for her self-titled debut EP, which can be snagged physically through Relapse or digitally via Bandcamp.
The EP is described as the combination of, “… the rawness of second wave black metal bands like Ulver and Darkthrone with the natural sonic beauty of Sigur Ros.”
Mrykur adds:
Nature is a big part of the reason black metal even exists. And all types of pure music that comes from a pure place. The word ‘Myrkur’ means ‘darkness’ in Icelandic. The place where there are no boundaries, where no one can hurt me. And when I have sung the screams it, physically hurts but it feels like something is leaving my body. I can’t remember it afterwards.
