about

Orv was founded in 2018 and since then the band has released two EPs (digitally). Based in Budapest, Hungary, the band was formed by Tamás Fider (guitar, drums, vocals) and Attila Gyulai (bass), who have been making music together in various bands since the late 1990s. Orv’s style is firmly rooted in black metal, but interspersed with melodic grandeur, melancholy and elements of death-doom metal.

Orv in Hungarian means deceitful, furtive, underhand, shady, nefarious, devious.

“Tidal”, the band's first output, was released in 2019, followed by the four-track EP “A crowning of misery” in 2021.

“Calmness is pretence” is Orv's forthcoming third EP. With a length of over 25 minutes, the four songs vary between fast-paced black metal and slow, doomy parts with occasional death metal elements. With a mixture of Finnish/Swedish, sometimes Dissection-esque black and Peaceville Three influences, Orv respects musical traditions but tries to develop its own distinctive voice with each release. The lyrics deal with various aspects of human misery, the clash of inner gloom and literal wretchedness.
