about

Afterglow is Isbjörg’s second release from their upcoming second full-length album which is expected to be released in early 2024.

Along with the latest release ‘Ornament’, ‘Afterglow’ marks a new era for the band who, since the release of their debut album ‘Iridescent’ in 2019, have welcomed Jonathan Kjærulff Larsen as their new front figure.

‘Afterglow’ is a grand, energetic and modern rock ballad that engulfs the listener in a melancholic soundscape driven by lead singer Jonathan Kjærulff Jensen’s powerful voice and balanced by Isbjörgs characteristic piano-centered rock sound. Lyrically, the song is centered around two people's loss of control, whose carelessness and unusual actions result in a negative spiral of which they can’t escape.

lyrics

Light slipping down
Measures were uncalled for
All left behind, but sat alone to falter
I recall something brand new
A siren's call for me and you
as we’re drifting out to sea

Dusk settles now
Engulfing me

One more time around the sun we go
One more step towards the end and now we know
We can't control

Take your time breathe in the afterglow
Everything gets lost in time so just let go
We can't control

Night flowing down
Slowing everything
The end of time
Profoundly soothing
The night so blissful now nocturnal
Wishing this could be eternal
All must come to an end
