Today's release **Spøkilsir / Revenants*** *weaves hypnotic dream-pop and trip-hop textures into an evocative meditation on embracing the ghosts of our past. **Eivør** conveys about the song: *“In ‘Spøkilsir / Revenants,’ we find relief in the imperfect.* *I think we all carry ghosts. Things in the past we would have liked to have handled differently or little flaws within ourselves we try to hide from the world. But often when we learn to fully embrace each other’s flaws, quirks and darker sides, they become endearing. We become more patient and forgiving, not only towards each other, but also towards ourselves.”* **Eivør** adds: *“The music video was created by my dear friend Gwenaël Akira, whose enthusiasm and dedication always make working with him inspiring.* *We wanted to create an inner world, a reflection of the voices, shadows and different versions of ourselves that live inside our heads. Gwenaël conceived a mirrored box, almost like a room inside the mind, and an incredible team of artists in the Faroe Islands brought it to life.”* Director **Gwenaël Akira **adds: *“At the heart of Spøkilsir was one constructed room: a space where one body could become many and reflections could express what cannot easily be said.* *Finding the emotional truth within those images with Eivør was a very special process.”* Pre-order ***Tungl ***here: **[https://eivor.bfan.link/tungl](https://eivor.bfan.link/tungl)** Listen to* ***Spøkilsir / Revenants **here: **[https://eivor.bfan.link/spokilsir](https://eivor.bfan.link/spokilsir)** [Watch on YouTube](https://youtu.be/9EfkBJjtI1s?si=dNfhRFlqYXbog9Iy) ***Tungl ***will be available in the following formats: **CD Jewelcase** Digipack - Artist Exclusive 1LP gatefold (crystal clear vinyl) 1LP gatefold (white & black marbled vinyl) - Nuclear Blast & Independent Stores 1LP gatefold (transparent & black marbled vinyl) + 7" bonus vinyl - Artist Exclusive Whether you’re already embedded into **Eivør**’s ever-expanding world or yet to fall under its spell, ***Tungl ***is a far-reaching journey of discovery. ***Tungl***** **– a Faroese word for ‘moon’ – sees **Eivør** reach further into elemental realms than ever before.

Ranging across rock, pop noir, jazz and folk to electronica over the course of 11 solo albums, various collaborations, live albums and soundtrack work including **The Last Kingdom**, **God of War** and **God of War Ragnarök**, her musical path has revealed both a restless, explorative spirit and a singer deeply connected to her Faroese roots, earning her the **Nordic Council Music Prize** along the way. It’s testament to the singular yet universal nature of her music that her fanbase has grown to include metalheads and the Norse pagan folk scene – for whom her startling voice, hide drum and throat-chant incantation, **Trøllabundin**, has become an unofficial anthem – as well as the mainstream, all instinctively understanding that music coming from a place of true authenticity knows no boundaries. If Eivør’s last album, ***Enn***, marked the beginning of a darker, more atmospheric phase, her forthcoming release, ***Tungl*** – the Faroese word for ‘moon’ – and her first for the powerhouse German metal label Nuclear Blast, sees her reach further into elemental realms than ever before. Immersive, unmoored and steeped in a sense of time-stretched drama where familiar marker points give way as an inner compass emerges over its 10 searching tracks, it’s an album also in tune with a very contemporary need for navigation, self-belief and rejuvenation in the most uncertain of times. As **Eivør **herself says: *“Tungl explores the ever-changing cycles of life – its songs move between moments of tenderness and heartache, love and loss, and the emotional tides that shape us. Like the moon that inspired its title, Tungl serves as a gentle guide through life’s darker passages, illuminating the beauty, resilience, and transformation found along the way.”* **[WEBSITE](https://us.list-manage.com/491T6bCKVGL?e=8eb7da516a&c2id=b83ff968615ee1ab477761331e6087de)**** | ****[FACEBOOK](https://us.list-manage.com/EnI8hsZOmZC?e=8eb7da516a&c2id=b83ff968615ee1ab477761331e6087de)**** | ****[SPOTIFY](https://us.list-manage.com/8CHXQXIISiP?e=8eb7da516a&c2id=b83ff968615ee1ab477761331e6087de)**** | ****[YOUTUBE](https://us.list-manage.com/vOmQi9gN5L8?e=8eb7da516a&c2id=b83ff968615ee1ab477761331e6087de)**** | ****[APPLE MUSIC](https://us.list-manage.com/ujme99EkHBJ?e=8eb7da516a&c2id=b83ff968615ee1ab477761331e6087de)**** | ****[INSTAGRAM](https://us.list-manage.com/xOjo9ri3EYY?e=8eb7da516a&c2id=b83ff968615ee1ab477761331e6087de)** ![Woman with long pale hair in dark gothic attire, arm raised against dramatic shadowy background.](https://media.onyourmarkus.au/admin/2026/09/1cc71330-811f-4016-84b2-1c2f4d50b3b4.jpg)
