    Produced by Garm of Ulver, the textures of M are even more finely hewn and interwoven than its predecessor, resulting in a record that is at once profoundly tactile and deeply sensual.

    Danish raven Amalie Bruun integrates extreme intensity into both genres' [goth/black metal's] inherent drama.

    For those who like black metal to creep up and slowly drain the light from the world like a suffocating nightmare, Myrkur are manna from Hell. [22 Aug 2015, p.53]

    Myrkur's music melds all of her adopted stylistic elements, lets their seams show, and emerges with an innovative, alchemical creation of her own. M expands on black metal's boundaries yet holds its dark, foreboding spirit close.

    The lyrics are in a combination of Danish, Norwegian and Icelandic, so it’s anyone’s guess what Bruun is talking about. Luckily,the music speaks for itself.

    Bruun has sealed many of the foundational cracks in her compositions and owned the audacity of the project and the form at large.

    M is painfully bland and too on the nose.
