Every band lucky enough to make a second record learns that the journey comes with a thousand hard choices. Double down on a sound that worked so far? Undertake wild-hair experiments to escape narrow boxes? Or let the weight of expectations, both inside and out, paralyze you? A lot can get in the way of “just make a rad record you can be proud of.”

For Seattle’s Museum of Light, the path to Diviner became clear at Ocean Sound. Set against stony peaks and icy fjords on the island of Giske, Norway, the turf-roofed studio’s setting let everyone involved bask in the kind of mythic landscapes that always served as a kind of closet influence for the band. Turns out inspiration is easy to come by when it’s nudged along by a walk down a wind-raked coastline or a night spent tracking with hallucinogenic auroras dancing in the sky. It wasn’t always comfy: Each day began with a cold plunge in the Norwegian Sea, as prescribed by returning producer extraordinaire Scott Evans (Sumac, Thrice, Kowloon Walled City).

These methods yielded a record that stomps with heavy, crushing swagger while sheltering the hollows of sparkling melody and hushed breath that set Museum of Light apart. Singer Elissa Alvarez both channeled and defied decades of opera training to transform into a beyond-human choir that gives Diviner its ethereal soul. And award-winning poet Amelia Urry gifted the record its pulse with haunting words about the slippery nature of existing in a lost world.

In the end, “making a rad record you can be proud of” was all that Museum of Light set out to do — international twists and turns be damned. They got there. Listen for yourself.
