Just as I hoped, here she delivered everything she teased us with on her debut. Nothing quite like hearing a musician find their feet and realise their own potential

Yeah this is really good, bought this and her debut together. First lp was alright but felt a little directionless at times, this delivers in spades though

I actually quite like Myrkur so seeing that this album is getting such praise has me stoked.

whole thing feels like a demo she was forced to commit to tape without actually developing her style at all tho. Like each track has a distinct style and it feels more like she was playing with ideas to see where to really take herself, then just got forced into recording the mishmash of ideas she had.

What is this genre, blackened folk?



I agree zar, she kind of needs to eat some shrooms with Satan in a Norwegian winter forest and focus that creative spark.

I'd blow a load if Myrkur went avant-garde. That said, I blow my load at everything avant-garde.

I'm a bit confused here: does the title De Tre Piker mean "the three dicks" or "the three girls"? I know "pike" is archaic Norwegian for "girl", and in Danish it's normally "pige", but the grammar is Danish here (in pure Norwegian it would be written with the definitive "de tre pikene"). As for "dick", the Danish write it as "pik" and the Norwegians "pikk", hence my confusion. Any help?

Pretty sure she just means "the three girls"



'Piga' is also an old timey word for girl in Swedish so

Pik in plural is pikke, I'm afraid.



But yeah, the confusion is understandable. She's Danish but that song is in Norwegian, because she's obsessed with that country.

The lyrics kinda look like a melange between Danish and Norwegian, so I'm betting they're written in the common form from back when the two languages weren't separate yet

"What is this genre, blackened folk?"



it literally changes on almost every single track. The first one is like folk bm, then there's chelsea wolfe doom, then some pseudo-epic pagan track, ambient piano music(?)... it's not consistent at all outside of "heavy dark riffs with some folk pizazz and clean vox".

Making a song about a three-dick bukkake wouldn't feel out of place on a BM record, they can be risque after all :D

I would translate the lyrics but I feel we are approaching a page break. But basically it's about a dude who wants to get laid and tries to buy off a girl with a golden ring.
