Jarðartrá
Enn rennur hon
sveitareyð
feigdaráin før
blóðgar tíni svørð
Úr dýpinum
flotna ræ
havsins aldingarð
sært tú reka har
Lyft upp
tíni eygu
og skoða meg
títt sanna heim
Lýð á
mítt harmaljóð
kom legg teg í
mín bláa favn
Osandi
av tíni grimd
ævigt vápnagrá
er tín jarðartrá
Eldurin
má loga út
lívsins fyrndarlag
Kanst tú syngja tað?
DUST TO DUST
Still it gushes forth
in crimson waves
fat river of fates
bloodies sharpened blades
From its dark depths
corpses rise
all the ocean’s delights
drift before your sight
Lift up
your clouded eyes
and look at me
your unmasked home
Listen
to my lament
come lie down in
my blue embrace
Reeking of
your cruel rage
flaking weapon-rust
crusts your fierce death-lust
Raging pyres
must blaze out
life’s primal song
Can you sing along?
Hugsi bert um teg
Svøvnleysa náttin
er nú aftur her
Komin at vitja meg
enn einaferð
Heimleysur longsul
floymir inn um hurðagátt
Fyllir tøgnina
nú í nátt
Tímarnir hanga
og eg hugsi bert um teg
Heimurin endar
men eg hugsi bert um teg
Larmandi býður
og eg gangi inn í
mannamúgvur
vinir eg ei havi sæð í langa tíð
Dansi í náttini
tíðin hongur
Men enn er tað bara tú
í mínum tonkum
Tímarnir hanga
og eg hugsi bert um teg
Heimurin endar
men eg hugsi bert um teg
Eg eri fangað
Tú hevur kastað gand á meg
Dagarnir ganga
og eg hugsi bert um teg
hugsi bert um teg
hugsi bert um teg
hugsi bert um teg
STILL JUST YOU
The sleepless nightfall
is back once more
Come to visit me
Been here before
A homeless yearning
seeps under my bolted door
Fills the silence
Back for more
The hours are dragging
and all I think about is you
The world is ending
still all I think about is you
Ear-splitting city
and I stumble upon
packs of people
Friends I haven’t seen far too long
Dance in the starless night
Time is dragging
And there is only you
on my fevered mind
The hours are dragging
and all I think about is you
The world is ending
but all I think about is you
Trapped and spiralling
You have cast a spell on me
Days are ticking by
And all I think about is you
all I think about is you
all I think about is you
all I think about is you

about
Eivør calls her Nordic home in the remote Faroe Islands a landscape of extremes. Sitting in the North Atlantic Ocean just above Scotland and southeast of Iceland, with a total population of about 50,000, the climate is “full of contrasts—very dark, heavy winters and bright summers.” Growing up in a small village there, of about 400 people, it’s those contrasts that have inspired Eivør’s music throughout her career.
Often considered to be one of the most prolific and unique Nordic artists of her generation, Eivør has released 11 studio albums to date, crossing musical genres and always pushing the envelope of the expected. Awarded with the Nordic Council Music Price in 2021, Eivør’s musical journey continues to fascinate and has seen her perform across the globe; from Europe’s biggest festival stages to providing the soundtrack to Netflix’s hit series The Last Kingdom and the video game God of War: Ragnarök.
Her forthcoming new album ENN ties back to Eivør’s Nordic roots. Most of the lyrics, sung entirely in Faroese, were penned in collaboration with the Faroese poet Marjun Syderbø Kjelnæs. Eivør calls the lyrics to the title track especially “hardcore.” The song is about war—“the wars that are going on in the world especially lately, but that have always been going on,” Eivør says, “and how to find a glimpse of light in this overwhelming darkness.” The guttural penultimate track, “Upp Úr Øskuni,” is a thrilling outlier mixing growling beatboxing with visceral throat singing (it’s certainly Eivør’s most metal moment).
ENN stands out among Eivør’s discography as a bold new venture. Her debut for Season of Mist, the album leans heavier into dark electronics. Her new Prophet-5 synthesizer hardly made it out of the box before she keyed up “Hugsi Bert Um Teg”, a swooning bit of dream-pop that dances like the colors of the milky way.
On a grand scale, ENN follows a cosmic arc. The title track is a symphonic, war-torn space odyssey. But the album also dwells on more earthly concerns. Lead single “Jardartra” is told from the perspective of a wounded mother earth, who calls to us with a steadily thumping bassline that’s as dark and warm as our planet’s molten core. “Come lie down in my blue embrace”, Eivør sings, reaching into her operatic register, as if beckoning us toward the light.
On ENN, Eivør moves heaven and earth.

Beautiful & serene from start to finish. SilverFolfy
Buoyant vocals and a varied palette of synths work in perfect tandem to create gorgeous art-pop that's able to address big realities. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 2, 2019
Madrid's Caliza creates intricately sound-designed ambient art pop addressing the climate crisis on this striking new LP. Bandcamp New & Notable Nov 23, 2021
i like this version better than the original. The middle part has that aggression that makes the excellent balance with the beginning and ending of the song. owlobo
