In the Silence

In the Silence is the second studio album by Icelandic singer-songwriter Ásgeir, and is his first all-English album. It was released digitally on 28 October 2013 and physically on 27 January 2014. The album includes the same tracklist as his highly successful debut album Dýrð í dauðaþögn in the Icelandic language, but with translated or new English-language lyrics by John Grant (from original lyrics in Icelandic by Einar Georg Einarsson, Ásgeir's father). The album has charted in Belgium and the Netherlands and the debut single, "Going Home", has charted in France. While promoting the record, Ásgeir played acoustic cover versions of Miley Cyrus' "Wrecking Ball" on Dutch 3FM [1] and, to more acclaim, Nirvana's "Heart-Shaped Box" on the French radio station OUI [2], adding the latter to his live setlists, and eventually releasing it on the deluxe edition of the album.
