I just got the song Blooddawn by Marduk, and I must say I like their style of Black Metal. Anybody else like them?

Their website is http://www.marduk.nu/ do not mind the two guys aiming at you with rifles, just click on them and they will go.

I have "Glorification" and "Panzer Division Marduk". ehh...quite good if you're into their sound, I'm really not into their music, but most of their songs are quite catchy for black metal.

Marduk got VERY boring after Nightwing, which I think is their best effort.
Panzer Division Marduk is ok if youre just looking for speed with no substance, and great song titles.
I have only heard a few songs from the new one with the new drummer, but basically it sounded the same to me.
Marduk are way overrated now.
Besides, mentioning satan 40 times in every other song is very juvenile seeing as how satan is a jewish concept to begin with.

Yes there is, though my personal favorite it "Fist Fucking Gods Planet".

On the new album there is a song entitled "with satan and victorious weapons"

Excellent name even if they do mention satan.

Hails All,

Dspite all the "Satan this and Satan that", Marduk are quite simply
one of the best mainstream BM acts going. For others that sound similar, try out Dark Funeral and Immortal, two other great bands.
Personally, I cant get enough of Marduk. My own band, Ketzer(Irelands only Heathen NSBM band) draw alot of influence from them. I have all their recordings and especially loved their project on Count Vlad Tepes, Prince of Wallachia, which was brough to its height on the 'Nightwing' album.

I also believe that Marduk may be slightly racialist. The album 'Panzer Division Marduk', along with its name and if you can get the lyrics, give some points away for the attentive listener. Perhaps their glorification of Vlad Tepes stems form his crushing of Turkish/muslim forces in the 1600s. On thier new album, 'World Funeral', there are song titles such as 'To The Deaths Head True' and 'Night Of The Long Knives'. Each song having 'give away' lyrical content. On their 2001 album, 'La Grande Danse Macabre', an excellent song, 'Obedience Unto Death', told of the afore mentioned SS motto and contained lyrics like, "behold the knight in solemn black manner with skull on his crest and blood on his banner" and "in blood we are drenched, in black we are dressed, with deaths heads on our collars, we stand unshaken"

This may give us a little insight into the political outlook of the band or may be simply a following of the trend to latch onto anything that is commonly deemed 'evil', such as Nazism. Whatever it implies, an excellent band nonetheless.
