The long-awaited follow-up to A/B: Icelandic rockers Kaleo return with Surface Sounds (2020), featuring 12 tracks including “Alter Ego,” “I Want More,” and “Break My Baby.”

Four years after their international breakthrough with the acclaimed album A/B — which climbed into the German Top 10 charts — Icelandic quartet Kaleo return with their highly anticipated follow-up, Surface Sounds (2020).

During the years between albums, frontman Jökull Júlíusson and his band traveled extensively, performing countless concerts around the world. Each tour and experience fed into Kaleo’s creative process, with Júlíusson repeatedly retreating into the studio to experiment and refine new material. The result is a collection of 12 powerful tracks that blend the band’s trademark blues-rock sound with fresh textures and emotional depth.

The singles “Alter Ego,” “I Want More,” and “Break My Baby” paved the way for the album’s release, offering a taste of Kaleo’s raw energy, bold songwriting, and evolving artistry. With Surface Sounds, the band captures both their restless spirit and the maturity earned through years of performing on the global stage.

Perfect for fans of modern blues-rock with a touch of Icelandic soul, this album is a testament to Kaleo’s growth and ambition.
