Morithum emerged in 2025 from the ashes of a failed project called Oprawca. Founded by Kaelthen and Wolvenblöd, the band was born out of a desire to create something deeper—blending the raw, unfiltered aggression of black metal with philosophical and existential themes. Their sound is dark, atmospheric, and unafraid to break genre conventions, incorporating a wide range of influences to craft an immersive and thought-provoking experience.
As the project took shape, Evil Sadistic Warrior and Ezuroth joined the ranks, adding new layers of intensity and depth to the music. What began as the remnants of a broken idea evolved into something far greater—a sonic exploration of decay, nihilism, and transcendence.
