H.L. Even with an organic production and basic instrumentation MORK understands very well to create atmosphere and catchy moments. Five of eight black metal tracks are really excellent and catchy. Grim vocals, rarely but effectively supported by clean vocals, and occasional but always thrilling "Windir" guitars are the main drivers. I really enjoy this unpretentious, but atmospheric Nordic style and put my five favourites on heavy rotation. Check for example "Svik" or "Tilbake Til Oppeinnelsen". Favorite track: Svik.

FORFØRT AV KULDEN Jeg lar meg lede av en hånd ut i snøen Det stivner til i alle mine ledd Neglene de sprenger på min fot og på min hånd Jeg fryser så det rister i hele kroppen øynene glaseres til is Mine tenner hakker så det splintrer Jeg kjenner kulden trekker inn Den fyller meg sakte til randen Jeg føler så at enden er nær Det er noe som kaller på meg En forførende røst i vinden Beroliget lokkes jeg mot En kald kropp varmes en siste gang Fanget i is for alltid

about

A CONTINUED EXPLORATION OF THE DEPTHS OF DARKNESS, IN THE SIXTH STUDIO ALBUM OF MASTERFULLY CRAFTED, GRIM, EPIC AND EXQUISITE NORWEGIAN BLACK METAL. INCLUDES GUEST APPEARANCE FROM HJELVIK (EX-KVELERTAK). PRESENTED ON LIMITED SILVER VINYL WITH GATEFOLD SLEEVE.

The ever prolific Thomas Eriksen returns with Mork’s sixth studio album following swiftly on the heels of 2021’s ‘Katedralen’ opus. A new highlight of meticulously composed atmospheric and grim yet anthemic darkness, with ‘Dypet’ Mork creates a tapestry of gloom-soaked tension amid the nightmarish soundscapes. At once forlorn yet uplifting ‘Dypet’ marks a natural progression of Eriksen’s ongoing evolution as a songwriter with a continued push for new ideas and sounds, whilst retaining the core essence of Mork’s foundation in ice cold hypnotic black metal.

The inspiration and concept for the title track itself (and cover art) involves a twist on the Cthulhu Mythos by H.P Lovecraft; in this instance turned into a Norwegian scenario where there is a cult on the coast that has worshipped “Draugen” (A mythical sea ghost in Norwegian lore) for generations. The rest of the tracks explore themes of death, betrayal, hate, inner demons and misanthropy, all finely woven into the album’s dynamically grim fabric.

‘Dypet’ was once more performed, recorded & mixed by Eriksen himself, with engineering assisted by Freddy Holm, and with mastering carried out by Jack Control at Enormous Door (Darkthrone). The track ‘Høye Murer’ features a guest vocal appearance by Hjelvik (ex-Kvelertak).
French artist David Thiérrée also returns with a new masterpiece of truly befitting artwork, inspired by the aforementioned “Draugen/Cthulhu” theme.

Mork was created by Thomas Eriksen in 2004 & was primarily a side-project from inception until the debut album, ‘Isebakke’, in 2013. Since then, with a constant flow of releases and live work, the band has rightly earned their accolade as one of the top Norwegian black metal acts of recent years, receiving strong endorsements from their peers.

Mork will embark upon a string of live dates throughout 2023 in support of ‘Dypet’.

Blackbraid quickly followed up their 2022 debut in 2023 with more native folk infused furious black metal. This is by no means a sophomore slump as it is equally excellent, methodical, melodical, and approachable as the first record. 9/10 RJ

The first time I heard this band was off their Heir of Ecliptical Romanticism, and I remember the riffs being the highlight of the album. This album is no different. The band just has a fuller sound with better production these days. Many of their tunes here remind me of early Satyricon. The classic heavy metal influences really make those riffs stick in your brain. Bart
