Jag är inte rädd för mörkret represents a significant breath of fresh air in the Kent discography. After a trilogy of albums defined by dense electronic experimentation and a cold, digital sheen, this record finds the band returning to a more organic, guitar-driven sound.

It is an album that feels like it was recorded in the light of day, even when it deals with the band's signature themes of isolation and longing. The title itself, I Am Not Afraid of the Dark, suggests a shift from the existential dread of their earlier work toward a more mature, perhaps even comfortable, acceptance of life's shadows.

Moments Worth Listening For
the transition in 999 where the rhythmic tension breaks into a wide-open, anthemic chorus
the subtle backing vocals of Petra Marklund on Svart snö providing a ghostly counterpoint to the lead
the moment the electronic pulses fade out entirely to reveal a clean, ringing acoustic guitar line
Where This Album DepartsEach spoke is a trait. The orange shape shows where this album pulls away from — or holds to — the rest of the artist’s catalogue. Tap for more.
