Kråke - Biography


This band's profile is 'invisible', meaning that it's much less prominent on the site - either because it's incomplete, or maybe doesn't entirely fit MS format.


Biography

Kråke was conceived as an idea already in 2007 by original founders and brothers, Dreugh and Beist.

Kråke is Norwegian for 'Crow', an animal known as a mythical creature throughout history and cultures. Especially as a herald of woe, a sign of death, but also wisdom.
Inspired by this the band strive to compose music which cover a wide variety of emotions, from anger and pride to anguish and despair. Inspiration is also sought from any source better enabling them to produce the music they want to create, be it classical and soundtrack music, literature and nature imagery. The lyrical themes are based around the darker aspects of life and the certainty of death, as for the actual music you will find links to bands like Dimmu Borgir, Old Man's Child, Bal-Sagoth and and even bands like Type O Negative.

The recording of their debut album has been a long process. Mainly due to the fact that the music for 'Conquering Death' is in its entirety composed, recorded, engineered and finally mixed by Dreugh himself in the bands own studio, Gainland Studios. Everything is done by the band itself, from guitar and bass to orchestra and drums. All lyrics and vocal arrangements are by Beist.
