Norrköping, Sweden (1990 – present)

Marduk is a Swedish band. Marduk’s predominant lyrical topics are Satanism, anti-Christianity, death, war and the Third Reich. The latter is an addition to their lyrical-conceptual themes stemming from their 1999 release Panzer Division Marduk; it quickly grew among their fans’ favorites and so far Marduk have released more and more songs relating to that dark but fascinating chapter of human history such as “The Hangman of Prague” (monicker of Prague “Reichsprotektor”, and, by the Way, Leader of the “Sicherheitsdienst”, Reinhard Heydrich), “Deathmarch” and others.

Marduk was founded in Norrköping, Sweden in 1990 by Morgan Steinmeyer Håkansson. His ultimate goal was to create the most blasphemous and Satanic band ever conceptualized.

In 1991, Marduk released a three song demo entitled “Fuck Me Jesus”, which due to its dark and irreverent lyrics was highly received by a cult following.
During 1992, Marduk released their first full-length album “Dark Endless” under the label No Fashion and continued to tour Sweden, augmenting their steadily growing fan base. Marduk switched over to the French label Osmose in 1993 after a dispute with No Fashion. Marduk began to tour throughout the rest of Europe in 1994 and in 1995 had their first gig across the Atlantic in Mexico City. They continued to amass fans and release albums over the next few years, even spearheading the European “Black Metal Assault Tour” in 1998.

In 2000, Marduk founded their own record label, Blooddawn Productions.

    M.A.M.M.O.N, World of Blades and Souls for Belial is only good songs on album. Others mostly boring.

    If evolution is bad, it's not exactly evolution. So in a way, music can't exactly be evolutionary.

    Stop hopping around saying things like, "I like it, and you don't, so..." Well, okay. You clearly like old Marduk, and I happen to like everything from them. Simply say it, stop being a sap trying to please everyone.

    Hazzzard was agressive, so I mentioned only bad evolutions. Of course you're right that evolution can be good, too, but I don't think Marduk is a good example. You don't like Svarttjern, I'm not impressed by Marduk after Danse Macabre. That's only taste, nothing else. One man finds passion in Venom, second in Cephalic Carnage, another in Dj Bobo. No point to talk about the tastes, I think. But to not respect other opinion, likes and unlikes? That's actually stupid.

    As Hazzard pointed out, evolution can be good or bad. You pointed out all the bad changes, which is stupid to do. Though, I see you have 635 plays of Svarttjern. Where's the passion and ideas from that band? Definition of mediocrity, if you ask me.
