"The opening track, 'Ember,' embodies the loving and menacing approach. Vocalist Elias Rønnenfelt sings, 'I love you in an ominous way,' manifesting in words the paradoxical songwriting."
"Rønnenfelt's lyrics are sung over shimmering acoustic guitar, no percussion, and harmonious voices before collapsing into an atonal scream and disjointed chords."
"'The songs needed to be immediate, urgent, raw, and fast,' Rønnenfelt said in a statement. 'We wanted to try to shed any unnecessary weight.'"
Iceage's sixth studio album, For Love of Grace & the Hereafter, is set for release on May 29th. The album features the new single 'Ember,' showcasing a blend of howling vocals and dissonant riffs. The band recorded the album at Silence Studio in Sweden, returning to a familiar setting. Vocalist Elias Rønnenfelt emphasizes the need for the songs to be immediate and raw, aiming to capture energy without unnecessary weight. This marks their first album of new material in five years.
