Marduk interview - black metal veteran Morgan "doesn't care"

[@nirmalvarma3386]

He makes the most sense. A true artist in my opinion. I wish he never dies.

Superb interview, really good rapport with Morgan. You've caught him in a really lucid and honest mood. Ive always admired this man.

[@RautaMetal]

Thanks!

[@Heavymetaleternia]

Never seen Morgan in such a good mood in an interview before. Congrats to you and your questions.

[@RautaMetal]

Thank you very much. Maybe we had the good chemistry there and that's why he smiled? I sometimes have that effect on people.

[@lNTOTHEGRAVE]

Marduk doesn’t waste any time. Hundreds of tours, get back to studio, record, another album, tour again, write more music. I’ve been a fan since 2002 when I was 15 and still listen to them. Honestly like I said, Morgan never rest, always busy with the band!

"Whatever you do in life, believe in what you do." That's the thing that sets Marduk apart from other Black Metal bands. Great interview, Rauta \m/

I dont know what you did to Morgan off screen, but I have never seen him so cheerful in an interview before! Great interview, my favourite of his for sure. My favourite Marduk albums are Nightiwing and Heaven Shall Burn.

Morgan has always been very straight to the point and no bullshit.

[@molletre9606]

Very good interview. You can see and hear that Morgan quickly realizes that this is not the usual blabla interview with boring questions he heard million times. When he´s bored he usually switches to long monologs talking about touring and standard answers, but here its a nice back and forth. And seeing him joking and smiling about his age, now thats quite unique.

[@RautaMetal]

Thanks! I think that way, too, that this was not the average and usual interview with same old boring questions :)

[@simcorvinus]

Thank you Rauta, finally an interview that it's not "how is the tour going" Do one with Taake!!!

For me MARDUK is the best Metal band, that still plays live nowadays. Their albums get better and better.

Art doesn't need to be explain, I like that.

[@virginiaorwell906]

Great interview, Jerry! I've been looking forward to this one from Steelfest and you didn't disappoint! Morgan never minces his words... Marduk's creative control over the band means they rarely (if ever) need to compromise their sound, message, and so forth. I think that's one of the reasons they've been so consistent throughout the years. You even got a smile out of Morgan which is a rare occurrence! Keep up the good work! \m/

[@RautaMetal]

Thank you very much, Virginia. Glad you liked the interview. Yeah, a smile is a nice "thanks" to me, I might say :)

[@Dummertrummer]

It was a happy surprise that Simon Schilling got the drum spot. He's perfect!!

[@FraterOculus]

So awesome to see a new interview from Morgan at last! I talked to him for a few minutes in back of a now defunct establishment in Northern Virginia back around 2013 or so for the Serpent Sermon tour. He is definitely an imposing presence, but also a cool guy to talk to. I imagine he is one of the hardest working guys in metal, seems like his tour schedule is more like a tour life than a tour schedule, and they're always working on something. I saw Mayhem play at the same venue and Marduk drew probably three times the people and did three times the show in intensity.

[@RautaMetal]

Yeah, very hard-working guy. 29 years in Marduk and still going very strong!

[@isaacjamesbaker]

Jaxx night club? That was a sick show!

[@FraterOculus]

​@@isaacjamesbaker Yeah that was it! Or Empire, I can't remember if its name was changed by that point, but yeah, that place, before it shut down. It does stick out in my mind as being good, I guess you were there as well! We waited around out back afterwards

[@isaacjamesbaker]

@@FraterOculus yep! Miss that spot. Only time I saw them and I wasn't really a fan then but loved it and became one. Cool about hanging around and meeting them.

[@ian.swift.31614]

you must be talking about Jaxx. I remember when Watain went in 2007/2008 and bloodied up the stage, they were banned by the owner afterwards.

[@marcinsmosna6259]

I like yours video's and I know black metal obliges you to low sound quality, but please ivest in the microphone!😉

[@RautaMetal]

Ah, it pains me to explain this over and over again, but here it goes: our main camera woman got sick and with her went the hand mike etc. We got to do this intie 2.30 in the morning so it was either to be done with our secondary camera set (which didn't have proper mic, since he wasn't meant to record this interview in the first place). So, we had to options: to do Marduk without proper mic and understand there would be bad sound quality or not do it at all. I thought it was worth the gamble. I am planning other options with mikes, but really couldn't see this shit coming. As for Rauta, there's at the moment zero budget for new microphones.

I love Marduk. I still remember checking out la grande dance macabre for the first time 20 years ago and was totally addicted.Strangely enough Morgan cites the album as his least favourite yet it’s my favourite then panzer division Marduk.Fredric Anderson my favourite drummer was on both albums and their best frontman and vocalist Legion!I have all the albums after the two left but I still think the best Marduk material was with the line up Legion,B-war ,Fredric Anderson,Morgan .FairPlay go Morgan though the bands released plenty of high quality albums and he’s never sold out.

[@Maran_Atha_66]

Strange that "La Grande Danse Macabre" is my least favurite and together with "Dark Endless". But it is a way of self setting ansd taste what YOU need and want to hear, what fits you well. It's like with shoes or clothes = you simply don't put on ones that you don't feel like you're yourself. And when you choose MARDUK it's like food = you need it but there is plenty of menu to choose which the "master chef" Morgan prepared and served over the years. ;)

I really like your channel and your opinions on all things you have shared. Great interview! Marduk is one of my top 5 bands of all time which lead me to this next question.

Very good interview as it is always pleasant to listen to Morgan's thoughts. I am always curious what is this man about to say and drag on the light from the past. Also it was very nice to heat that he is in touch with old members like Andreas "Dread" Axelsson, Joakim "Av Grav" Göthberg and Roger "B.War" Svensson. Also I think that he is in touch with Lars Brodesson and Devo Andersson as Lars had worked with Mortuus on last two Funeral Mist's albums "Hekatomb" and "Deiform" which are absolute killers. But one thing about this interview and that is echo and sound. Sometimes I simply don't understand what is the speech about. 😢
