The name Morodh was taken from the works of the Russian poet and mystic Daniil Andreev.
In The Rose of the World, this name is one of the retribution worlds in which human souls stay in silence and loneliness alone with the memories of their crimes.
Formed in summer 2011 as a one-man project by Ragnaar, Morodh have taken cues from the Doom Metal of the 90's and combined it with the depressive tones of black metal and post-black metal.
