Ásgeir’s highly anticipated second full-length album, Afterglow, marks a bold evolution for the Icelandic sensation. Released in May 2017 via One Little Indian, this expansive follow-up to the record-breaking In The Silence sees the artist submerging his folk-inspired origins into a vast, oceanic world of electronic experimentation.
The album is a masterclass in atmospheric production, characterized by:
- Crystalline Soundscapes: A rich blend of organic instrumentation and "lilting electronics."
- Sonic Depth: Jittery piano melodies, glitchy beats, and "ethereal, otherworldly vocals" that define Ásgeir’s signature style.
- Bold Textures: A transition from the "cozy hospitality of home" to a broader, more adventurous sense of escape and release.
Key tracks include the luminous "Afterglow," which sets the record’s pensive tone with pulsing rhythms, and the haunting "Here Comes The Wave In." While the album explores commercial territory on tracks like "New Day," the overall consensus is a work of immense warmth and mystique. This deluxe release includes the LP vinyl, a 7-inch 45 RPM single, and the CD album, making it a comprehensive addition to any collection.
Experience the "warmth of an Arctic summer" with a record that balances intimacy with grand, electronic ambition.
