In The Silence is the English language version of Ásgeir's breakthrough debut album 'Dyrd í dauðathogn', translated from Icelandic by John Grant.
Born and raised in the hamlet of Laugarbakki (population: 40) in the wilds of Iceland, Ásgeir comes from a large family of musicians. At just 20 years of age, he became an overnight sensation in his domestic music scene with the release of Dyrd í dauðathogn. The album broke all records to become Iceland's fastest and biggest selling debut album by a homegrown artist. Staggeringly, one in ten of the Icelandic population now owns the album.
In Iceland, the unusual poetry of Dyrd í dauðathogn attracted almost as much attention as the music itself, in part because it was mostly written by Ásgeir's 72-year-old father. Combining both electronic and organic elements, the songs themselves are all Ásgeir: light and airy, inset with his distinctively melancholic voice. Their vibrancy elevates his appeal way beyond the folktronica tag.
