Morten Furuly (born 13 November 1975), also known as Sanrabb, is a Norwegian black metal musician and one of the founding members of black/death metal band Gehenna.[1]

Biography

Sanrabb formed Gehenna in 1993, together with Dolgar and Sir Vereda. He has participated on all of Gehenna's releases, both as a vocalist and as a guitarist.[citation needed] During the period between 1999 and 2003, when it was unclear whether the band would continue, Sanrabb was the only member actively working on Gehenna projects.[2]

In addition to Gehenna, Sanrabb has played in several other extreme metal bands, and he has done session live guitars for bands such as Mayhem and Satyricon.[citation needed]

Reception

In a review of the Gehenna album Unravel (2013), Angry Metal Guy wrote, "Sanrabb’s vox are in top form", describing his "dragged out scream in 'The Decision'" as "a kind of a strained, gut-wrenching, throaty sort of half growl/half scream that brings to mind the anguished lamentations of John Haughm during the early, unpolished days of a young Agalloch".[3]
