History & Biography
He Stockholm-based band was formed in 1993 and dissolved in 2005. A Demo was released in 1993 and another followed the year after. Like many death/black metal bands of the area the group was snapped up by the one-man operation No Fashion Records. The group was Goth Gorgon and Draakh Kimera. The debut was recorded at the Unisound Studio with Edge Of Sanity’s Daniel Swanö. The follow-up was recorded at Sunlight Studio. Avatar joined for album number three after an extended break by the band. This album was supported through a tour with Enthroned, Aeturnus, Hecate Enthroned and Agathodaimon. Draakh Kimera left at the end of 2003.

By the time the band’s Black Lodge album was being recorded the Swedes were a spent force, which only remained together to record the disc. Band founder and leader 'goth' was not into 'metal' anymore and would be going into the stoner direction. Nonetheless, the group returned in 2016 and issued a live EP in 2018. The EP was recorded in Stockholm in 2017. The band was booked for Eindhoven Metal Meeting for 2019. The reformed Mörk Gryning signed with Season Of Mist in 2020. The band was heading into the studio. Mörk Gryning released an album called Hinsides Vrede through Season Of Mist on October 23. Avatar left in 2022 and Stefan Lundgren, alongside Draakh Kimera, took the microphone. The act was booked for Candelabrum Metal Fest in Mexico in 2023 alongside Grave, Deceased, Heathen, Sacramentum, Unanimated, Draconian and Paradise Lost. Mörk Gryning uploaded a song called Tornet, which was taken from the Fasornas Tid album that was out through Season Of Mist in 2024.

Mörk Gryning is Swedish for ‘dark dawn.’ Multiple members ended up in C.B Murdoc.
