Brundarkh is a dark fantasy metal project founded in 2020 and in late 2021 they released their first EP, Haunted Worlds. The debut album Those Born of Fire & Shadow was released in 2023 and inspired by different tales from J.R.R. Tolkien's "The Silmarillion". On the 29th of August 2025 they released their newest single One with the Machine. "Though rooted in fantasy, Brundarkh is not confined by it. 'One With The Machine' is a thematic shift - a glimpse into future releases that explore a broader spectrum of myth, fear, and imagination." - Metal Devastation PR "Drinking upon the well that is the literary spirit of Tolkien, summoning forth a mystical energy fused with the harmonious aura birthed from Melodic Death Metal, newcomers Brundarkh fashion a world erected in sound that perpetuates an atmosphere so vivid to the senses as though the ink etched upon a page has transmuted into physical form for one to inhibit." - Justin Joseph (Metal Digest)
