Marduk-band-2013-2.jpg


Marduk (band) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Marduk | Official site of Marduk


Genre - Black Metal
Formed - 1990

Another band from the infamous Norwegian Black Metal scene but they have a more diverse range of lyrical content compared to some of their contemporaries. They do have anti-Christian themes, satanic themes, biblical themes, death but also World War II especially hinted on their new release. In sound its that trademark Black Metal sound with high pitched guitar tones, more atmospheric riffs and a gloomy, isolated feel overall which is what Black Metal is most known for.

MARDUK were one of the first "brutal" Black Metal bands I really got into back in the 90s.
They were then and remain one of favorites of the genre. I have all the earlier stuff from Dark Endless to Nightwing on retail CD. I also have Live In Germania ...which I love and a double comp. of some unreleased material on CD and a live DVD. Legion being my favorite of their vocalist I kind of lost interest in them after his departure. I do have Plague Angel on vinyl and just bought the newest release Frontschwein ....haven't got around to listening to it yet. Will do that later tonight more then likely.

Nice OP @Riff Raff.
