GUNGNXR
Viking Deathcore band
GUNGNXR is the high-voltage force of Viking Deathcore, helmed by vocalist Gungnir McKittrick. His music is a dark alchemy of ambient Norse folk and bone-crushing breakdowns, channeling mythic storytelling with a modern, socially-aware edge. The project thrives on contrasts: beauty and brutality, ancient lore and present-day angst, ritualistic melodies and guttural fury. gungnxrmusic.com ampwrecked.com
Rooted in both tradition and extremity, GUNGNXR’s soundscape is primal and haunting, shaped by McKittrick’s military-honed discipline and early training as both a drummer and vocalist. This band creates immersive tracks where crushing riffs meet chilling ambience. gungnxrmusic.com
Their latest single, “OUR LUCIAN…”, is a raw spiral into grief and rage—equal parts deathcore, metalcore, and emotional catharsis. Jarring rhythms and dissonant layers blend with guttural vocals and atmospheric dread in a volatile burst of sonic chaos. insaneblog.net
Based in Minnesota, GUNGNXR has been steadily carving out their niche in the heavy underground, earning attention for their genre-defying energy and relentless approach. GUNGNXR is the vision of Gungnir McKittrick, a ritual leader who channels the primal energy of Norse folk traditions and fuses it with the ferocity of intense metal. Masked and shrouded in mystery, GUNGNXR blurs the line between performance and ritual, where frame drums, chants, and throat singing summon the atmosphere of the old ways, before erupting into walls of guitars, screams, and thunderous percussion.
In the studio, Gungnir McKittrick composes and records as a solitary creator, building layered soundscapes that honor the ancient past while embracing the brutal modern-day. On stage, GUNGNXR transforms venues into ritual spaces through a convergence of bone, blood, and sound. This is not merely a concert, but an invocation: a seiðr ritual where past and present collapse, and the spirit of Norse tradition collides with the raw power of metal.
