About MORLOCKS

Formed in Gothenburg, Sweden, in the early ’90s by J. Strauss, MORLOCKS has evolved from a guitar-driven electronic rock sound into a grand industrial symphonic powerhouse. The addition of Innocentius Rabiatus (Andreas Wandegren of Dark Side Cowboys) in 2003 saw the group lean into heavier industrial rock influences, culminating in their celebrated 2011 album The Outlaw of Fives.

Notable collaborations include working with KMFDM’s Sascha Konietzko, dark ambient electro artist Karin My, and black metal vocalist Heljarmadr (Grá/Dark Funeral). Their most recent full-length release, Praise The Iconoclast, was hailed as a masterpiece in the industrial and darkwave scene.
