Mork was created by Thomas Eriksen in the town of Halden in Norway during 2004. Both then and now the band functions as a one-man-band, much like many others within the Black Metal-genre. Mork was primarily a side-project for Eriksen from the inception until the debut album was made in 2013. 

During the summer 2013 Eriksen visited the old rehearsal haunts of the Norwegian band Darkthrone, which is and has always been a big part of his inspirations. The visit triggered such a big part of Eriksen’s inspirational flow that he went straight back home and made what would become the debut album “Isebakke”.

The debut “Isebakke” was released physically during 2014 and was praised by both critics and Black Metal-fans. Tracks from the album has gotten airplay several times after its release, including an airing at Silenoz’s (Dimmu Borgir) show 333 – Half Evil.

2014 was also the year when Eriksen gathered enough members to make Mork into a full live act. The band debuted live in January 2015 in Olsztyn, Poland.

2015 saw the release of the EP “Fortid Og Fremtid” which is a compilation of re-recorded songs of the first demo as well as a new track and a live track.

December 2015 Mork released the digital single “I Sluket Av Myra” along with a music video and was named “BAND of the WEEK” by Fenriz (Darkthrone). The video was premiered at Metal Hammer Norway.

2016 would show to be the year Mork become more active than ever. The second album “Den Vandrende Skygge” was released in February to much praise from critics and fans alike. The album includes a special-guest appearance by Nocturno Culto (Darkthrone) who does vocals on the track “Hudbreiderens Revir”. This song appeared on Radio Fenriz, run by Fenriz (Darkthrone).


Early summer Mork signed to Peaceville Records for album number three. Now Mork became label-buddies with Darkthrone among others on a bigger label. In July the band was joined by Nocturno Culto on stage during a show in Trysil, performing ‘Hudbreiderens Revir’.

In August Peaceville released the digital single and music-video ‘I Hornenes Bilde’ which spread like wildfire on the internet. The video was compiled of footage from the bands show at Rockefeller Music Hall, in March, shot by Punkrockphoto.

In the beginning of September, the band played the Hellbotn Metalfest in Kolbotn, Norway. Later the same month it was announced that Mork would play their first UK-show in London the following October. The show was booked by Cult Never Dies and Becoming The forest. Peaceville released the second track ‘Mørkets Alter’ in form of a lyric-video in the boosting of the exclusive London-show. October 13th saw the release of third album ‘Eremittens Dal’ in all formats. The album includes special guest-vocals by Silenoz (Dimmu Borgir) and guest-bass-guitar by Seidemann (1349). The album artwork is done exclusively by Jannicke Wiese-Hansen, famous for making the cover art for early Burzum and Satyricon albums.


In November the band played the first of several shows together with Seidemann’s Svart Lotus at Revolver in Oslo. The bands toured together through February 2018. Early 2018 Mork signs with bookers; Massive Music (Europe) and Rockaway (Scandinavia). Throughout the summer and late summer, the band plays festival-shows, including Midgardsblot in Norway and the concert debut in Romania at Dark Bombastic Evening Held in Transylvania. Mork debut album “Isebakke” and second album “Den Vandrende Skygge” was re-released by Peaceville Records in July and August. In September the band played the Spetakkel Festival in Larvik with Insidious Disease and at Brygga Kultursal in Halden with Satyricon.


2019 saw the release of the single “På Tvers Av Tidene” alongside a lyric-video. A bit later the second single and music-video “I Flammens Favn” and lastly a third one “Siste Reis” accompanied by an artwork-video. In early March the band headlined the Chimera Dark Night Festival in Prague, Czech. During easter Mork returned to the Inferno Festival which also saw the release of the fourth album “Det Svarte Juv”.



During a summer break, as Thomas travelled Norway, he came across the hometown of the Norwegian artist Theodor Kittelsen. While there he got wind of a special location, which turned out to be the basis for a couple of his famous depictions of “Pesta” in the “Svartedauden” book. As the worldwide pandemic raged on, Eriksen found this a fitting plot for a new Mork track. So, the song “Pesta” was created and shopped to Peaceville, who went on to release a 12” vinyl EP, containing the title track “Pesta” as well as the acoustic Burzum cover and two live tracks. The EP is in whole based on photographs that Thomas and Punkrockphoto shot at the Kittelsen location. With photos capturing the “Pesta i trappa” and “Musstad” pieces by Kittelsen. On Black Friday, November 27th, “Pesta” wad released digitally and on a limited 500 vinyl copies.


In mid-January the first single “Arv” of the upcoming album was released digitally alongside a music video. The second single “Svartmalt” featuring a returning guest appearance by Nocturno Culto (Darkthrone) was released digitally and as a lyric video in mid-February.

On March 5th the fifth studio album “Katedralen” was released by Peaceville Records and was met with an overwhelming positive response from both fans and critics. On the release night the band hosted a live-streamed concert that attracted 100k viewers and counting.


Mid-September Peaceville Records released the EP “Den Svevende Festning” which is compiled of a couple of unreleased tracks from the Katedralen sessions as well as some live tracks. The EP is released as a limited 1000 vinyl copies which 150 was hand numbered. The band played two more festivals in Norway, the Northern Deception and the Spetakkelfestival in late September and the Mörkaste Småland festival in Sweden early October.

On Friday 13th of January 2023, Peaceville Records announced the sixth studio album “Dypet” which is set for release March 24th. The album will be available on black vinyl, limited silver vinyl, digipak CD and on streaming.

On Friday the 13th of February the first single of the album “Bortgang” was released accompanied by a lyric video. The single made the top list of latest singles in KERRANG!. “Tilbake Til Opprinnelsen” was the second single and was included on the many streaming playlists as well as accompanied by a lyric video. When “Dypet” finally was released, it gained top scores and rates from the biggest magazines and websites all around. 10/10 by Metal Injection, 9/10 by Blabbermouth, 4,5/5 by Metalsucks and 8/10 by Metal Hammer UK to name a few. During Easter MORK headlined the John Dee stage at Inferno Metal Festival, making it the band’s third appearance at the festival. The “Pesta” EP was included in the “Dårlig Stemning” exhibition at the Norwegian National Library around the same time of easter.
