"I chose to release an English version of my song 'Blood' not only because it holds a very special place in my heart, but also because I wanted to explore how my sound might change when I switch languages. I've always been intrigued by different languages, and even though Faroese has a special place in my heart-and I'll absolutely continue writing in it-I think it's important to grow and evolve as an artist."
"Released through Embassy of Music (home to iconic artists like Björk, Moby, and Ásgeir), Í Ævir navigates through emotional terrains characterised by longing, solitude, and connection. Elinborg's sonic palette merges ambient pop, electronic minimalism, and Nordic folk, beautifully capturing the rugged landscapes of the Faroe Islands. The album's hallmark cinematic production, ethereal synths, and emotive vocal delivery are well represented in its focus track,"
Elinborg releases "Blood," an English version of the Faroese track "Blóð" from her debut album Í Ævir ("Forever"), via Embassy of Music. The English rendition lets an international audience engage with the song's personal songwriting and explores how language shifts her sound. She will continue writing in Faroese while also releasing English versions to reach more listeners and add artistic colors. Í Ævir navigates longing, solitude, and connection, merging ambient pop, electronic minimalism, and Nordic folk. Cinematic production, ethereal synths, and emotive vocals define the album, especially the title track about searching for someone who slips through your hands. Blood builds on recent dark wave releases and reinforces Elinborg's distinctive identity.
