A Musical Northern Light

Myrkur, the project of Amalie Bruun, first illuminated the Black Metal scene in 2014. Originating from Denmark, Myrkur combines elements of Scandinavian folklore with the intensity of Black Metal, making the music a unique experience. Amalie, taking on the role of both singer and multi-instrumentalist, started Myrkur as a solo project but has gathered a supporting band for live performances over time. However, her musical journey began not in Metal but in Indie music, giving her the versatility that shapes Myrkur. Due to the project's nature as a solo venture, there haven't been significant lineup changes, though live musicians significantly contribute to the dynamics of the performances. Myrkur is signed to Relapse Records, a label known for its diversity in Metal and beyond. Discography highlights include albums like M (2015) and Mareridt (2017), widely praised for their innovative sounds and profound thematic concepts. Her ability to weave Nordic folklore and stories into her music has not only earned her a loyal fan base but also recognition in the press. Myrkur has managed to tour internationally, bridging the worlds of Metal and Folk with her music.

Messages From The Depths

Myrkur's artistic vision aims to take listeners on a journey through the myths and nature of Scandinavia. Amalie Bruun draws inspiration from the rich history of her homeland, the landscape, and traditional tales to create music that not only entertains but also provokes thought. Her lyrics speak of ancient gods, nature spirits, and human emotions, set against the rugged beauty of the Nordic landscape. These profound themes resonate with an audience seeking authenticity and depth.
