MARULK picture
Swedish act MARULK was formed in 2007 by Danne Palm (bass, vocals), Thomas Jäger (guitars, vocals) and Esben Willems (drums, backing vocals), all of them with past experiences from various bands that never quite went in the musical direction they wanted to explore.

With Marulk they realized a joint vision: To create and perform songs taking their cues from late 60's and 70's metal, taking their cues from Jimi Hendrix and Captain Beyond and arguably even more from the likes of Black Sabbath and AC/DC.

Marulk have been an active live unit ever since the formation, performing in Sweden, Denmark and Germany, and their first ever release was a limited edition tour EP issued back in 2007 while on the road in Germany. Later on they were signed by Swedish label Transubstans Records, who issued their full length album debut "Marulk" in February 2010.

Yet another Swedish hard rock band bringing on the heritage of the 70's has arrived, this time in the shape of power-trio Marulk. They've been around since 2007, and made their début available in February 2010 courtesy of Transubstans Records.

What's showcased in the 9 compositions featured are a driving variety of hard rock, often sounding like vintage Black Sabbath playing tunes by AC/DC or vice versa, early doom metal Sabbath style but with the livelier riff patterns and boogie rock tendencies of the electric band from down under as the structure and shape of heavy downtuned guitar sound is placed in.

Add in some touches of blues and folk music, with vintage psychedelic sounds flavouring the proceedings now and then, and this disc is pretty much covered as far as content goes.

This début effort shows promise and talent, especially when the band heads into more sophisticated waters, and while the more sparsely crafted tunes mostly sound pretty interesting at best too it is when these guys gets to be a tad more elaborate that this albums gets really interesting.

Standout track: I See You in My Dreams
