Iceland's Kælan Mikla will return with a new album, Undir Köldum Norðumljósum, on October 15 via Artoffact Records. The upcoming album features 10 songs, including a guest appearance from Alcest -- and two new songs are available online as we speak (hit the jump for embeds).

The band's synth-driven, atmospheric yet raw sound continues to develop on this album, their fourth overall, and the follow-up to 2018's Nótt eftir nótt.

Track list:

1) Svört Augu
2) Sólstöður
3) Örlögin
4) Halastjarnan
5) Ósýnileg
6) Sírenur
7) Stormurinn
8) Óskasteinar
9) Hvítir Sandar (feat. Alcest)
10) Saman
