Black metal community summary of Myrkur: "Woman + black metal = bad, woman now singing doing what she does best, love the way her sound is progressing, hopefully she continues (stays out of BM) in this direction".rMyrkur had a great take on BM and now proves she can just straight up sing with the best of them. Amazing production. 'Fager som en Ros', 'House Carpenter' and 'Vinter' are highlights.

3.7 greatErwann S. EMERITUS | April 16th 25

A metal artist going folk can be either hit (Ulver) or miss (most of the rest let's be real), and Myrkur mostly hits with Folkesange: her take on Nordic folk is gorgeous, if a tad too monotone.

0.0 didnt ask to be staff, was made staff anyway, then got demoted for not doing staff stuff | June 13th 20

Her foray into ancient Scandinavian folk seems like a logical next step and I hope she keeps on that track and expands her sound even further. Right now this sounds a little one note, but nevertheless an unusual album to hit the (relatively) mainstream scene.

This one feels like a trip to the great outdoors, over tall mountains, frosty lakes, and misty forests. The major protagonist here is Amalie Bruun and her beautiful voice that shines like the Northern Lights. More importantly, the album doesn't sound forced, but rather natural and organic.

4.5 superbGary STAFF | March 20th 20

I really needed this. Beatiful nordic folk + Amalie Bruun's heavenly voice = pure gold. Productionwise speaking, the album is excellent, the instrumentation really matches to her singing, and all those uplifting melodies make this a perfectly relaxing album. Great year for folk music!

Should have renamed the band. This is just too different.

4.0 excellentToondude | March 19th 20

I love most of her black metal stuff, but this is equally as awesome.

Bump

3.5 greatNightOnDrunkMountain EMERITUS | March 14th 20

Finally she's doing what she can do best. Abandoning black metal elements, which were too frail in her music, and focusing on her glorious voice under a hefty, purely folk album. Well done, a great listen.

Anyone else get their copy early? Mine just came and I'm listening now. Great so far.
