Morvigor is a Dutch four-piece born in 2011 that has re-emerged from a period of metamorphosis with renewed purpose and a clear vision for the future and a brand-new EP, De Spiegel, co-released between Onism Productions & Vita Detestabilis Records on the 26th of February, 2024.
“Morvigor embodies expressive black metal, their elongated missives are propelled forward with an energy that makes their unorthodox approach feel visceral and vital. Mixing both clean and harsh vocals, abrasive sounds, and more mellow, ambient passages, the band invites us to join them on a journey that willfully wanders off the beaten track. The scope of their music veers towards the cinematic as they sweep through progressive and post-metal territory, while the embrace of blistering black metal is rarely far from sight.
Although they view their cryptic lyrics as an inessential part of the Morvigor experience, they traverse themes of existentialism, absurdism, and philosophical thought anchored in feelings of alienation, curiosity, anxiety, and wonder. Lyrics are written as a stream of consciousness by bassist Evio, with his individual experiences flowing freely through short bursts of intuitive, freeform writing. He comments, “With each word I write, or each note I play, I try to find expression for how I experience existence.”
The expansive two tracks on De Spiegel spread their tendrils over a twenty-minute run time, each song unfurling with confidence and a flair for experimental expression.
