Bio
Nyrak is a Belgian progressive black metal band founded in late 2021 by Guy Van Nieuwenhove as a solo studio project. The band's sound combines the raw intensity of black metal with progressive elements and dark cinematic sounds, creating a distinctive musical identity.
Following the release of its debut album Malvs (2022), Nyrak evolved into a full-fledged live band. Since then, the band has released Devourer Of All (2024), the Dolby Atmos EP Faceless Tyrant (2025) and Phoenix Mortis (2025), while steadily expanding its presence across the European metal scene.
With an established live lineup and several European shows behind them, Nyrak continues to develop its sound and live presence. The band's fourth full-length album, Empires Of Ash, is scheduled for release in November 2026.
