Myrkur It's almost one year since Danish artist Myrkur released her critically acclaimed, masterful debut full-length, M, and now unveils a captivating live recording from the historic Emanuel Vigeland Mausoleum in Oslo, Norway. Aptly titled Mausoleum, the album features beautifully dramatic and stripped-down acoustic reinventions of seven songs from M plus one brand new song and a Bathory cover; all with the accompaniment of the storied Norwegian Girls Choir. Captured in a cold, dimly-lit tomb covered in morbid frescos that depict the circle of human life from conception til death, Mausoleum is an incredible showcase of Myrkur's sublime yet haunting voice in a truly chilling, unrivaled atmosphere. Mausoleum is due out on 19th August on CD/LP/Digital via Relapse Records. Physical pre-orders are available at this location, and digital versions can be pre-ordered via Myrkur's Bandcamp site. In the player below you can already stream to the track "Jeg er Guden, I er Tjenerne". Link
