Ceci Noir, the moniker of Swedish artist Cecilia Norberg, reveals a thrilling preview of her upcoming album, “Voltage Valleys,” with the release of “Away.” Inspired by the gritty sounds of 90s grunge rock, this track takes us on a nostalgic yet refreshing sonic journey.
The song bursts to life with an explosion of energetic vibes, driven by thumping drums and the distinctive drive of melodic and gritty guitars. Ceci Noir’s vocals, tender and soft, deliver with utmost passion, resilience, and non-conforming vigor. They intertwine seamlessly with the powerful instrumentation, reflecting the rebellious spirit that defined the grunge era. There’s a balance between raw, unbridled energy and carefully crafted musicality, a hallmark of grunge’s rebellious ethos.

Ceci Noir’s ability to channel the essence of grunge while infusing it with her personal touch is a testament to her artistry.
