MORK RELEASE SECOND SINGLE ‘TORDEN’

Norwegian titan, Mork, was created by Thomas Eriksen in 2004, with the debut album ‘Isebakke’ eventually surfacing in 2013. Since then, Mork has been ceaselessly rising through the echelons of Black Metal, and on the heels of 2024’s intense and groundbreaking ‘Syv’ opus - which has resulted in the band branching out with tours in the Far East & Australia - Eriksen continues on this evolutionary path with the new album, and what is undoubtedly set to be a new benchmark, MONOLITT, set for release on Peaceville on June 19. 

Now, Mork shares the second single from the album, titled “TORDEN” alongside a new video produced by Matthew Vickerstaff.

This energetic track captures the moment when storm hits. When the elements have had enough and it is time to wash everything away in anger. It’s big and epic at the same time of being crushing and relentless. A track that gets the blood boiling. - MORK

With “Torden”, Mork unleashes a storm in its purest form, raw, untamed, and relentless. As the upcoming single from the new album, the track stands as a powerful statement of where Mork is right now: sharper, more intense, and more focused than ever. Driven by surging riffs, thunderous momentum, and an atmosphere that feels both epic and suffocating, “Torden” captures the moment just before everything breaks, and the chaos that follows. It’s aggressive without losing its sense of scale, cinematic without sacrificing its bite.

This is not just a song; it’s a force of nature. A surge of energy, fury, and purpose that signals a new chapter, one where everything is torn down, only to be rebuilt stronger than before.

Prepare for impact. The storm is coming.

“A stark monument to the unrelenting brutality of reality, the monolith looms above us, immovable, indifferent, eternal. Its crushing presence bears down on the spirit, suffocating hope and testing the limits of endurance. It is an experience carved in stone, unyielding”. – Thomas Eriksen

‘Monolitt’ was recorded and performed primarily by Thomas Eriksen, with Asgeir Mickelson supplying drums, plus additional vocals coming from fellow Mork member Øyvind Kaslegard. The album was mixed at Toproom Studio by Børge Finstad (Mayhem), before being mastered by Jack Control at Enormous Door (Darkthrone), and at Appelbaum Mastering by Maor Appelbaum (Sepultura). The bold and striking cover image was created by Norwegian artist Kjell Åge Melland with contribution from David Thierree.

Mork will be embarking on an extensive touring schedule in support of ‘Monolitt’ –
