Grade: 4.5/5.0
A decade ago, Iceage made its bones with a blistering wave of desolate punk rock. Since then, the Danish band has been impossible to pin down, reconfiguring its noisy, abrasive style into combinations as unpredictable as they are exciting. In 2014, the band mixed its music with a shot of country. In 2018, a dose of art pop. With new LP
Seek Shelter, the band finds sonic salvation, emerging with a bright new sound that finds catharsis in reinvention after a year of relentless suffering.

Iceage’s
Elias Bender Rønnenfelt shares over Zoom from his home in Copenhagen, where he’s been (behaving himself) for the past year. “You do find, first of all, you can create lots of mess in the city you’re from, you don’t have to run away to do that. And second of all you just find that the ideas start coming from different places, or there’s just another tempo to things.”
