Alternative Rock from TROLN

Hailing from The Danish capital of Copenhagen, TROLN is an alt rock four-piece formed by singer Helene Navne, Christian Rønn on organ and keys, guitarist Henrik Liebgott and drummer Thomas Olsen. Together they offer a powerful mix of post-punk and classic rock, wrapped up in a modern sound that’s entirely their own.

While often dark in nature, their music is shrouded in beauty. Moody and brooding instruments and harmonic structures are fused with euphoric and captivating vocal leads offering a sonic comparison to the dark night sky studded with bright shining stars.

Perfect for listeners who like dreaming, meditating and dancing, TROLN’s sound is a mesmeric concoction of powerful rock instrumentation delivering delicate and thoughtfully crafted notes. Blending their love for darkness as well as romantic notions, with their lyrics they spin engrossing stories that draw the listener in to vibrant and dramatic sonic scenes.

Following their debut album, 2019’s eponymous record, they’re set to drop their sophomore full-length with Ghost coming in September. With the first of three singles lifted from the album to be released ahead, they’ve recently shared the lead single “Says Abraham”.

Composed about devotion to another person, a deity or a spiritual leader, the song notes the question of whether the entity we follow is truly good. With the dual emotions of both longing for and fearing a spiritual devotion, TROLN capture a quirky sonic accompaniment to such questions full of unrelenting rhythm and piquant instrumental touches to kick off the anticipation of their upcoming album Ghost.
