Morowe biography
Formed in 2006, Morowe are a Polish progressive black metal band from Katowice. Morowe (Polish for plague) began as one of the many side projects of Furia and Massemord member Michał Kuźniak (aka Nihil; also of Cssaba and FDS), accompanied by the guitarist/keyboardist known only as Hans (of Ulcer Uterus) and drummer Mariusz Pawłowski (aka Baron von B.; of Bottlekopf and Nuclear Vomit). Morowe belong to Kuźniak's Let the World Burn Coalition, a collective of southwestern Polish black metal musicians from Silesia, playing eclectic and post-metal-inspired takes on the genre.

Signed to Witching Hour Productions, Morowe have released two full-lengths - 2010's Piekło.Labirynty.Diabły and 2014's S - and a split with fellow avant-garde black metal band Non Opus Dei in 2013, which features Pawłowski's replacement Michał Łysejko (future drummer for Decapitated). Expanding on the template set by Ved Buens Ende, Morowe's post-black metal style is similar to Virus, Mord'a'Stigmata, Island, Apocryphal Voice, Altar of Plagues and Kailash.
