Myrkur has entered the studio for her new album with producer Randall Dunn (Sunn O))), Boris). Initial sessions took place at Black Tornado Studio in Copenhagen, Denmark and will continue at Dunn‘s own Seattle, WA area studio. Myrkur said of the album:
“I have spent the last year writing songs for this record and choosing which ones should make it. It has been a very different approach as well as process, compared to my debut album. I am mixing Kulning into the melodies, an ancient Scandinavian herding call and the lyrics are in different languages. I am very happy to have Randall Dunn produce the album here in Copenhagen, even though he is American, he seems to have Nordic blood and music running in his veins. It’s a very exciting juxtaposition for me.”
A fall release date is being planned via Relapse and special guests will be announced in the months to come.
