Myrkur announce new album ‘Spine’
MYRKUR has announced a new album!
Titled Spine, the upcoming album from the Danish multi-instrumentalist is the follow-up to 2020’s Folkesange, and is scheduled to be released in October this year, via Relapse Records.
For the new album, this time around, MYRKUR reunited with producer Randall Dunn in SIGUR RÓS’ Icelandic Sundlaugin Studio to negotiate the contrast between the deepest human connection of mother and child, and an increasingly disconnected, alienating world, from pandemic restrictions and isolation to the rise of Artificial Intelligence.
Alongside the announcement of the new album, Bruun has released a new song from the upcoming album; Like Humans. Speaking about the new song, she says, “when I wrote Like Humans I felt very disconnected and isolated from the human race. The lack of touch and being in the first few years of motherhood forced me to become human in a way I never thought I would. Going through all of these changes at once made me desperately want to feel a connection with the earth and humans. Writing and recording this album helped me heal and succeed with that dream.”
