FEVER DREAM

Background
Lead singer Nanna Bryndís Hilmarsdóttir said that while writing the album she had grown "really tired" of writing songs on an acoustic guitar as it "brought out things in  that were predictable", so she began working on a laptop at home, "figuring out all these new sounds and being curious about them". Nanna said lead single "Alligator", called "driving and percussion-heavy" by Billboard, began like a "dance song", but that it is not entirely representative of the album's sound. She described the album as "more poppy and brighter" than the band's previous album, 2015's Beneath the Skin.
