Band Biographies: Mörkekraft

Formed in Southern Norway, Mörkekraft have developed a powerful combination of heavy riffs, atmospheric melodies and straightforward rock. Drawing from punk roots, Scandinavian rock, and experimental influences, the band blend weight and melody into a style that has been described as “a depressed Thin Lizzy”, combining emotional tension with classic rock sensibility.

 

In January 2025, the band entered Bridge Burner Recording in Stavanger with Ørjan Kristoffersen Lund (NAG), recording three tracks, which were mixed by Lund and mastered by Steven Grant Bishop (Satyricon, Karavan, Sløtface). These first releases gained airplay on Norwegian national radio NRK P13, featured on shows hosted by Thomas Felberg and Totto Mjelde.

 

Mörkekraft returned to the studio in May 2025 to complete five additional songs, bringing the total to eight tracks. The full album was mixed by Ørjan Kristoffersen Lund and mastered by Steven Grant Bishop, and will form the band’s forthcoming full-length album.
