Mareridt (translation: Nightmare) is the highly anticipated sophomore full-length from renowned Danish composer and multi-instrumentalist MYRKUR. Recorded between Copenhagen and Seattle with producer Randall Dunn (Marissa Nadler, Earth, Sunn O))), Boris, Wolves In The Throne Room), Mareridt is a rich juxtaposition of the dark and the light; the moon and the mother earth; the witch and the saint. MYRKUR explores deeper into the mysterious and the feminine with 11 tracks that further progress her visionary blend of metal with gorgeous, stirring melodies, dark folk passages, choral arrangements and superb, horrific beauty. Further taking MYRKUR to new artistic heights are lyrics in multiple languages, an unforgettable collaboration with Chelsea Wolfe and an array of special instrumentation including violin, mandola, folk drums, nyckelharpa (an ancient Swedish key harp), and Kulning (an ancient Scandinavian herding call). Mareridt is a profound manifestation of nightmares that demonstrates MYRKUR as one of the truly exceptional artists of our time.

Lyrics:

Look in my eyes
you’ll always see a serpent
run from the dark

you’ll always always feel it
down your spine
try me and suffer
impure from holy wood
where angels fall

Cause I put a spell on you
And I broke your book of rules
I put a spell on you
And I am the truth

Flooding your gates
my storm is a disturbance
can you explain
your doorway’s always hiding

try me and suffer
impure from holy wood
where angels fall

Cause I put a spell on you
And I broke your book of rules
I put a spell on you
And I am the truth
