Afterglow (Ásgeir album)

Afterglow is the third studio album by Icelandic singer-songwriter Ásgeir, released on 5 May 2017 through One Little Indian Records.

It received mixed reviews from critics and charted across Europe, as well as reaching number 22 in Australia.

[1] Clash's Josh Gray commented that "Ásgeir's music is far too complex and interesting to start writing off as advert fodder.

[4] Under the Radar wrote that "although the melodies have matured, on Afterglow, the 24-year-old gives a poetic, intimate look at the inner workings of his mind, thanks to collaborating with his father, poet Einar Georg Einarsson".

[6] Uncut felt that "although at times it can sound a little too carefully planned, there are some wonderful moments",[5] while Mojo stated that "unfortunately, Afterglow further embraces, and is overshadowed by, his influences".
