Myrkur is the one-woman black metal musical project of Danish musician Amalie Bruun.[3] Myrkur is signed to Relapse Records; initially the real-life identity of the person behind the project was kept unknown.[4][5][6]
The project debuted with a self-titled EP in 2014; Bruun provided the vocals, played all guitars and bass and produced the album.[3] Drums were played by her friend Rex Myrnur.
In June 2015, Myrkur announced the release of a full length album, entitled M, which was released on August 21, 2015 via Relapse Records.[7] The album was produced by Kristoffer Rygg of Ulver, and featured Teloch of Mayhem and Nidingr on guitars, with Øyvind Myrvoll of Nidingr and Dodheimsgard on drums.
