In Amber
In Amber is the fifth studio album by Hercules and Love Affair, released digitally and physically on June 17, 2022, by Skint Records/BMG. The band's founder, singer and musician, Andy Butler worked again with singer Anohni (previously of Anohni and the Johnsons): Anohni appeared on several tracks, including the singles "Poisonous Storytelling", and "One". "Grace", the first song released ahead of the album, was sung by Butler with Icelandic singer Elin Ey.
AllMusic wrote that In Amber, "pivoted away from upbeat, dance-oriented tracks into a more reflective style. Featuring Anohni for the first time since 2008, the record channeled emotions such as anger, fear, and sadness while retaining the pristine production that Butler has cultivated throughout his career".
In Amber received critical acclaim. It was named "Album of the Year 2022" by The Arts Desk, and Slant Magazine included "One" in "The 50 Best Songs of 2022" list.
