Marduk
Marduk is a black metal band from Norrköping, Sweden. The name is derived from the Babylonian name of a late-generation god from ancient Mesopotamia, Marduk, patron deity of Babylon.Marduk was formed by Morgan Steinmeyer Håkansson in order to form the "most blasphemous band in the world". Their musical style was that of a straight-forward death metal influenced take on black metal music, but as the years progressed their style and imagery became more of a fast and intense form of black metal; by the release of Panzer Division Marduk the music had become so quick and insane that fans have dubbed their style as "norsecore". Marduk's predominant lyrical topics are Satanism, anti-Christianity, Biblical inversion, Third Reich history and World War II. The latter two are a later addition to their lyrical/conceptual themes, stemming from their 1999 release Panzer Division Marduk. Marduk have recorded further songs relating to those chapters of human history, such as "The Hangman of Prague" (moniker of Prague "Reichsprotektor" Reinhard Heydrich), "Night of the Long Knives", "Deathmarch" and others. It has to be noted, however, that by singing about Nazi Germany, Marduk do not subscribe to the tenets of the national socialist black metal scene, their approach not being justificatory or praising.
