Kælan Mikla - Nótt eftir nótt (2018) EN


The girls of the Icelandic Kælan Mikla like touring in Poland so they are perhaps quite well-known in here. This autumn they released their new album, Nótt eftir nótt, on which they reach perfection in creating synthwave that is catchy but also very dark.

Both the gender and the number of the artists make me think about witches and I'm fairly sure they wouldn't protest when called this. Both in the gloomy atmospheric intro as in the following, surprisingly very catchy tracks, one can find inspirations coming from magic and the horror. The mystery part is also supported by the Icelandic language as Kælan Mikla prove that it's possible to sing in it not only in the jónsi-like falsetto.

Although the language doesn't make space for much understanding (maybe except for the title of  Nótt eftir nótt recorded with the help of Bang Gang), it doesn't influence the urge to hum the Icelanders' hits, led by Nornalagið and te single entitled Hvernig kemst ég upp? But the lyrics must be also good as the band is known for being established a couple days before a poetry slam, one that the girls naturally won.

Nótt eftir nótt costs 10 USD.
