Description
Label Review.
Earliest recordings from 2007. Norweigian black metal.
Our Overview.
The earliest raw recordings of the new rising titans of Norwegian black metal, including three additional tracks. Presented on vinyl for the first time.
Mork was created by Thomas Eriksen in 2004 & was primarily a side-project from inception until the debut album, ‘Isebakke’, in 2013. Since then 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, as well as notable guest appearances from members of Darkthrone, Dimmu Borgir & 1349 on studio releases.
Harking back to the earliest period of the band, ‘Rota Til Ondskap’, from 2007, captures Mork at its most primal during those formative years, with a collection of raw demo tracks fuelled by masters of Norwegian black metal such as Mayhem, Darkthrone and Burzum, as well as Eriksen’s own interpretations & expansions of the black metal riffing style fused with twisted melodic passages, with a series of recordings draped in a thick layer of hellish, swirling chaos.‘Rota Til Onskapt’ is presented on black 180gm heavyweight vinyl, & receives its first release on the format, plus includes three additional tracks from the ‘Rota Til Ondskapt’ sessions.
