Review by Even Ormbostad, Norway

After hearing “Monument” repeatedly before I finally managed to sleep, I woke up again early today, still with a sense of enthusiasm and joy after the night’s release.

Monument straight in as number ONE on itunes charts

KEiiNO’s new song, Monument, was released today, Friday, January 15th just after midnight.

This could mean two things, 1. A new single soon, or 2. They were among those soon to be announced as participants in this year’s Melodi Grand Prix i Norge.

Review: Transarctic Lover

Since we heard a little snippet of KEiiNO and Sordal’s new collaboration single, Transarctic Lover, I have played the snipped over and over again. It had so many promises and potentials, that waiting until the 9th of October, seemed like for absolutely-ever. Now the day is here, the single is released and I am even more overwhelmed and impressed than I expected to be. The snippet we heard did NOT do the song justice.
