About Me

mournphagy was formed in 1996. started to compose its first songs and released them in demo tapes entitled Thy Word Abideth in 1997. the demo then re-released by US label, noise-squatch in 7" format with alternate track, 5627.

the band then recorded the first official album on 1999, For You. the main idea of its song writing was more based on personal struggle rather than on social criticism. the depression during the time it was made pushed the band to separate the lyrics and the music. it was sensed that the meaning of "singing" the lyrics during the vocal recording session is diminishing and therefore replaced by the angry and despair shriek instead. the lyrics then were meant as the poem and to enrich the music itself. but unfortunately they were disappeared years after the album made.

after almost ten years since it was made, the band found that what was produced through simple idea on year 1999 has actually overstepped its capability. some unique elements that was thought to be disappeared in time were actually remain the same. the band still finds them attached on the songs and even more, give different touch. this awareness drives the only member, lévi, to resurrect the mournphagy again.
and so the journey commence, one more time...
