The Gods We Can Touch, an elegant but provocative album about shame, desire and morality, seen through the narrative prism of greek mythology. In each of the album’s songs we meet a different god. On Exist For Love, it’s Aphrodite; We also meet Persephone, queen of the damned (on Heathens), Morpheus (This Could Be A Dream) and Peitho, the personification of seduction and persuasion (A Dangerous Thing). “The Greeks had gods and goddesses for everything,” Aurora notes. “For anxiety, for wine, for sex… Long ago when this concept of gods and goddesses started they were more human, more relatable, and almost touchable. Most importantly, they had flaws.”

Reviews

“Considering themes of global unity, climate change, and capitalism, as well as her own personal grief and loss, the singer blends emotive, simple lyrics with sounds borrowed from pop, techno, folk, and classical, including choral singing on ethereal track Earthly Delights.” ★★★★★ The Telegraph


“Monolithic in nature, the world-building on ‘What Happened to the Heart?’ makes a bleeding heart – both for self and the earth – appear rapturous and unfathomably healing.” ★ ★ ★ ★ ⋆ – DIY


“The Norwegian singer (...) is capable of moments of pure alt-pop emotion” ★★★★ – The Sun


“The Norwegian has never sounded more vulnerable than on this collection brimming with innocence and beauty”– ★★★★ Daily Star
