Askebloss parted ways with MYRKVEDR

Hard time for MYRKVEDR band who has seen the departure of their folk player "Runar" you can find in FROSTRIT band. Their bass player "Askebloss" has done the same, for another and darker reason...

Dear fans.
It is with a heavy heart that we tell you that Askebloss has decided to leave us. He no longer feels that he has the drive or time to continue playing bass at all. We in the band are of course very sad because of this since Askebloss has been with the band since the beginning, and we all consider him a family member.
As you might have noticed, Myrkvedr hasn't been particularly active doing gigs or completeing the EP, which is delayed beyond measurement. And the reason for this is of course financial difficulties but also internal struggles, which is to be expected when you basically are a group of people trying to steer a car at the same time. This isn't usually a problem for us, but these last months working on making our EP as good as possible, we all seemed to have lost sight of WHY we began to play music, and instead of having fun, we began viewing rehearsal as a chore or a job and it just wasn't fun anymore for any of us.

So we had a bandmeeting where we discussed what to do next, and we set a course of action and talked about what we had to do to make our goals happen, and for the first time in months we actually had fun in the rehearsalroom making new songs and just jamming. But for Askebloss it was too late, his love for playing music was drained all away, and now we find ourselves in this situation. We all hope he finds his love for music again and wish him all the best in his future endeavours.
So what now? We will spend a forseeable time writing new material and search for a replacement for Askebloss. This means that we probably won't do any gigs in the near future, but you never know! And hopefully we will be able to find a new member soon!
In the meantime, stay brutal!!
