MORKRET- The Point Of No Return - Out Soon!

Shred Force Delta

About Me

"Immediately from the outset it is clear that Morkret are different to many of the stereotypical death and black metal bands out there, the complexity of the the lead guitar lines speak for themselves of guitarist David Bond's ability and the accompanyment is no less spectacular:- a searing, raspy growl ascending up from the constructed chaos of the music as if from the bowels of hell itself, at times contrasted by a gentle and melodic piano and generally always accentuted by a fierce, torrential drum line." From the small, meaningless area of Burnley, England arise a new and extreme band, Mörkret, meaning Darkness in Swedish.
Blending melodic technical metal riffs with blastbeats and highly virtuosic guitar solos, Mörkret are determined to place Burnley on the technical metal map.
Morkret have gone through many formations over the years and have drastically changed from the two piece that started Morkret at Nelson and Colne College in 2003.
