EIVĂR calls her Nordic home in the remote Faroe Islands a landscape of extremes. Sitting in the North Atlantic Ocean just above Scotland and southeast of Iceland, with a total population of about 50,000, the climate is âfull of contrastsâvery dark, heavy winters and bright summersâ. Growing up in a small village of about 400 people, EIVĂR has always been inspired by those contrasts throughout her career.
Often considered to be one of the most prolific and unique Nordic artists of her generation, EIVĂR has released 11 studio albums to date, crossing musical genres and always pushing the envelope of the expected. Awarded with the Nordic Council Music Price in 2021, EIVĂR âs musical journey continues to fascinate and has seen her perform across the globe; from Europeâs biggest festival stages to providing the soundtrack to Netflixâs hit series âThe Last Kingdomâ and the video game âGod of War: Ragnarökâ.
Her forthcoming new album Enn ties back to EIVĂR âs Nordic roots. Most of the lyrics, sung entirely in Faroese, were penned in collaboration with the Faroese poet Marjun SyderbĂž KjelnĂŠs. EIVĂR calls the lyrics to the title track especially âhardcore.â The song is about warââthe wars that are going on in the world especially lately, but that have always been going onâ, EIVĂR says, âand how to find a glimpse of light in this overwhelming darknessâ. The guttural penultimate track, âUpp Ăr Ăskuni,â is a thrilling outlier mixing growling beatboxing with visceral throat singing (itâs certainly EIVĂR âs most metal moment).
âEnnâ stands out among EIVĂR âs discography as a bold new venture. Her debut for Season of Mist, the album leans heavier into dark electronics. Her new Prophet-5 synthesizer hardly made it out of the box before she keyed up âHugsi Bert Um Tegâ, a swooning bit of dream-pop that dances like the colors of the milky way.
On a grand scale, âEnnâ follows a cosmic arc. The title track is a symphonic, war-torn space odyssey. But the album also dwells on more earthly concerns. Lead single âJardartraâ is told from the perspective of a wounded mother earth, who calls to us with a steadily thumping bassline thatâs as dark and warm as our planetâs molten core. âCome lie down in my blue embraceâ, EIVĂR sings, reaching into her operatic register, as if beckoning us toward the light.
On âEnnâ, EIVĂR moves heaven and earth.
For fans of HEILUNG, BJĂRK, TORI AMOS, CHELSEA WOLFE, MYRKUR.
