MYRKUR Debuts New Video "Ulvinde"
MYRKUR Debuts New Video "Ulvinde"

MYRKUR's stunning new video "Ulvinde", directed by Mats Ek, beautifully captures her longing for a place in nature, in peace, away from the 'real' world - a world that she explains "often feels I cannot and was never meant to function in." Inner and outer demons all come to life in breathtaking footage captured across Norwegian landscapes and scenery.

Thank you so much @smashingpumpkins for having us tonight and for inviting me to sing Landslide with you. It was an honor. Thank you Wembley Arena!
Hello, I wanted to give you an update here. I was hospitalized over the weekend and had some rough days. But I am slowly getting better physically now. Unfortunately though I will not be able to perform with Heilung at their upcoming concert as planned. This is of course something I'm NOT happy about. But healing takes time you know? Thank you so much for all your support
The past couple of days I got quite ill and ended up in the hospital. I am back home now relaxing and I hope and pray the worst has passed. I normally would keep this to myself but I want to share this to let you know I might need time for healing and self preservation. Thank you to those who have been there so much for me, it means everything
Regnar Lodbrog & Kraka by norwegian/Danish painter Louis Moe in 1898. The saga goes: Regnar the Danish king asked Kraka (who's real name was Aslaug) to meet him not dressed and not nude, not eating yet not fasting, not alone yet not followed by a human. So she turned up in a fishing net, having bitten into an onion, followed by her dog. If you're in Denmark oct 5, go to Storm P Museum. They're opening their Louis Moe exhibition presented by @johnkennmortensen
🇫🇮 Finland concert earlier this year. I cannot wait to come back and play for you again 🇫🇮 Nov 9 + 10 both with @amorphisband Photo: Marco Manzi
I am going on my first headlining tour this december and I am adding some old scandinavian folk music to the set. But I also feel inspired to honor the different countries I will be playing in, by learning some of THEIR traditional folk songs. So I would like to hear what are your favorite folk songs from your country / culture if any? Countries: Sweden, Norway, Poland, Hungary, Austria, Holland, UK
Cool illustration of me and @zealandardor in new Kerrang + an interview where we speak about you guessed it black metal

Walking by the ocean today I found some sea-creatures / aliens. Do any of you know what they are? Swipe for photos of both
I am excited to sing with Heilung for their performance at DR Koncerthuset in Copenhagen Oct. 13th. Also joining the rituals are these great singers Christine Gaski (NO), Annicke Shireen (NL) and Ingrid Galadriel (NO)
1 year ago today, my 2nd album ‘Mareridt’ was unleashed. Swipe for photos and memories from when it was recorded in Copenhagen and Seattle. Many people were involved in making this nightmare come true, and not to sound like some acceptance speech here, but I would humbly like to mention and thank some of them. Even when you are a 1-person project and 1 songwriter, it can take a village of talent to bring your vision to life. Randall Dunn, William Hayes, Aaron Weaver, Veslemøy Aalde Heyerdahl, Ida Sandberg Motzfeldt, Andreas Lynge, Brad Mowen, Abbey Blackwell, Christopher Juul, Maria Franz, Ole Luk, Chelsea Wolfe, Ben Chisholm, Nickolaj Nielsen and Relapse Records for putting it out. Very special thank you to Statens Kunstfond and Koda. Cover photo by Daria Endresen + Odd Nerdrum
This is a bit of a dream come true: Open for the legendary @smashingpumpkins at 2 incredible venues: London Wembley Arena and Bologna Unipol Arena
