LEPROUS's EINAR SOLBERG Announces Second Solo Album 'Vox Occulta'
To celebrate the announcement, Einar has launched the second track from the album, titled "Medulla", and you can watch the video — directed by Leo Liberti — below.
Einar comments: "'Medulla' started with a riff. I had just picked up an eight-string plugin, and it immediately led me to that main idea. As soon as it came together, I knew it had weight. It felt physical — like something you feel in your bones rather than just hear. That's where the idea of marrow came in.
"The song is about the part of me that stayed strong through everything I've been through. No matter what happened around it, the core held.
"There's no full orchestra on this track, but it still has a cinematic edge. Chris Baum added real strings, and Keli, Pierre Danel and Jed Lingat bring the song to life on drums, guitar, and bass."
As well as the beautiful orchestration, Einar is joined by drummer Keli Guðjónsson (AGENT FRESCO),violinist Chris Baum (BENT KNEE),guitarist Pierre Danel (NOVELISTS) and bassist Jed Lingat, as well as guitarists Ben Levin (ex-BENT KNEE) and John Browne (MONUMENTS). The album was mixed by Adam Noble (NOTHING BUT THIEVES, BIFFY CLYRO) and co-produced with David Castillo.
"Vox Occulta" sees Solberg taking a deeply personal approach, having been an avid fan of classical music and soundtracks for more than 20 years. The lyrics are personal as well, and they make "Vox Occulta" something of a thematic follow-up to "16". Where Solberg's solo debut revisited the death of his father and his past struggles with anxiety, this set is a wartsand-all portrait of himself and how he views the world in 2026.
"Vox Occulta" will be released as a limited CD digipak, gatefold white/black 2LP and a very limited gatefold transparent red 2LP, as well as digitally.
The first live dates in support of his upcoming second solo album have also been announced, and 2026 will see him playing the following headline dates across Europe:
