HISTORY
|
1990:
Hatred and scorn towards Christ and Christianity gives birth to the band
Marduk whose desire is to create the most blasphemous and unholy music ever
experienced by mankind. 1991:
Marduk releases the demo "Fuck Me Jesus" which receives a very
positive and enthusiastic praise within the underground scene. The band also
records material for a planned 7" called "Here's No Peace" but
the band later choose not to release it when they get an album deal from the
Swedish label No Fashion Rec. 1992:
Marduk performs on various locations through Sweden and records full-length
album "Dark Endless" which is released by no Fashion in December. 1993:
After being badly ripped off by No Fashion, Marduk signs a deal with the
French label Osmose Productions and records a new album entitled "Those
Of The Unlight" which is released in October. 1994:
Marduk plays abroad for the first time on a black metal festival in Norway.
In May/June Marduk's first European tour takes place together with Immortal
under the name "Sons Of Northern Darkness". In the autumn the third
full-length album "Opus Nocturne" is recorded and in the end of the
year the album is available in the stores. 1995:
In February Marduk's second European crusade called "The Winter
War" takes place with Enslaved as a support act. "Fuck Me
Jesus" is released as a miniCD in April due to the tremendous demand for
the recording, which at this time have gained a heavy cult reputation. But
because of the title and cover artwork the release is boycotted in 7
countries. In early June Marduk plays one gig in Mexico City. Marduk spends
falltime with creating new material. 1996:
In February Marduk enters a studio once again to record their new album
"Heaven Shall Burn... When We Are Gathered" which hits the shelves
of the record stores in June and is immediately cherished as a milestone
within the black metal scene. Never before have any band showed such skill in
mastering the power of ultra fast and furious black metal. In the autumn
Marduk tours with the support acts Gehenna and Mysticum on the so far longest
European Tour. A new MCD "Glorification" with a remixed track from "Heaven
Shall Burn... " + covers of Bathory, Piledriver, and Destruction is
released during the tour. 1997:
The black metal warmaschine Marduk attacks Europe once again in spring on the
shorter "Legion" tour. A live album, entitled "Live In
Germania", recorded on four different locations in Germany during the 96
tour for "Heaven Shall Burn... " is released during summer and
impress greatly on critics worldwide, as proving that Marduk, unlike many
others are fully capable of performing their material on stage with the same
intensity and feeling as on their studio albums. A single gig is performed
together with the reformed Mayhem
in former east Germany during midsummer. The ancient recording "Here's
No Peace" is released in October on the newly started Swedish label
Shadow Rec. and during Oct./Nov. Marduk perpetuates the upcoming and long
awaited percursor of "Heaven Shall Burn... " entitled
"Nightwing". 1998:
"Nightwing" is ready to be unleashed upon the masses. Divided into
two chapters, the first one entitled "Dictionnarie Infernal"
containing the tracks "Preludium", "Bloodtide (XXX)",
"Of Hells Fire", "Slay The Nazarene" and
"Nightwing" will blow all competing albums into oblivion with its
spellbinding speed and brutality. Chapter two "The Warlord Of
Wallachia" deals with the life and doings of Vlad Tepes Draculea in five
pieces entitled "Dreams Of Blood And Iron", "Dracole
Wayda", "Kaziklu Bey/The Lord Impaler", "Deme Quaden
Thyrane", "Anno Domini 1476". Accompanied by bonecrushing
music very well fitting to the lyrical concept. "The
Warlord Of Wallachia" will be just everything people fascinated by Vlad
The Impaler can ask for. "Nightwing" will be a massive monument of
christraping Black Metal and the people involved with this kind of music that
do not worship this recording are either lying or are totally deaf ! |
