José González - Against The Dying Of The Light
Release Date: 27/03/26
José González returns with Against the Dying of the Light, a companion and deeper meditation on the themes of his acclaimed Local Valley. Expanding from intimate reflections to a wider, humanist lens, the album reflects on how technology shapes attention, empathy, and community, and gently urges resistance to forces that divide. Within a deliberately minimal framework, González pushes his signature hypnotic guitar and hushed vocals to new heights, revealing rich detail through restraint. Sung in English, Swedish, and Spanish, it draws on his Swedish-Argentine roots and the folk tradition of thoughtful protest. Quietly powerful and deeply melodic, these songs feel both immediate and timeless. Highlights include A Perfect Storm, Etyd, Against the Dying of the Light, For Every Dusk, and Joy (Can’t Help but Sing). Released via City Slang.
