Ethereal Scandi royalty AURORA has finally announced an album to go along with the magical single 'Cure For Me', released in the summer. The Gods We Can Touch will comprise 15 tracks, each focusing on a different God. It drops in January via Decca.

Get another fix today with 'Giving In To The Love', a dark, synth-led pop song that shows a very exciting harder edge to the singer-songwriter. This one's about Prometheus:

On the album, AURORA said: “The spiritual door between the human and the gods is a very complicated thing. In the right hands faith can become the most beautiful thing. Nurturing and warm. And in the wrong hands it can become a beacon of war and death."

'Giving In To Love' explores some of this fascination with the Greek Gods ("almost within our reach"). "I was thinking about Prometheus, and how he stole the fire to sculpt us - the humans. I feel like we sometimes forget that we are living creatures, capable of so many beautiful things" she explained.

  1. The Forbidden Fruits Of Eden
