Infernal

Infernal have been one of Denmark's most successful dance groups since their inception during the late '90s. They are known for their highly energetic, full band live performances, as well as their fearless incorporation of numerous different genres into their spirited, uplifting sound. On their earliest releases, such as 1998's Infernal Affairs (including their first Danish number one hit, "Kalinka"), they blended upbeat Euro-dance with traditional folk melodies and instruments from different nations. With 2004's From Paris to Berlin, they moved towards more contemporary dance-pop with electro and neo-disco influences. The stylish title track became the group's international breakthrough, and they continued in a similar direction with 2008's Electric Cabaret. After the group's core duo released a handful of Danish-language singles under their first names, Paw & Lina, Infernal returned with a string of singles updating their sound for the EDM era, touching on styles like trap, future bass, and big room house. They celebrated their 25th anniversary with their most ambitious release yet, 2022's full-length Hormesis. Lina Rafn and Paw Lagermann, both from Copenhagen, met in the early '90s and started listening to dance music before they were old enough to go clubbing. The two started making music as Infernal, originally joined by Søren Haahr, who contributed to the group's first few singles, and occasionally returned for later songs and remixes. The bagpipe-driven Euro-house single "Sorti de L'enfer" appeared in 1997 and reached number five in Denmark, and the hits continued with songs like "Highland Fling" and the chart-topping "Kalinka," based on a Russian Drobushki folk melody. Debut album Infernal Affairs appeared in 1998 and went double platinum. Remixed Affairs arrived in between the debut and 2001's Waiting for Daylight, subsequently revised as the more pop-oriented, higher-charting Muzaik, which the band regarded as the version they initially intended to release. In 2003, Infernal released a collaboration with Snap! titled "The Cult of Noise," then released "Banjo Thing" (featuring Haahr, aka Red$tar), which sampled "Swamp Thing" by the Grid. Infernal switched to electropop with 2004's "From Paris to Berlin," a platinum chart-topper in their home country which also exploded around the world, hitting number two in the U.K., where it went gold. The song's parent full-length, also titled From Paris to Berlin, and 2008 follow-up Electric Cabaret contained several other singles which were certified platinum or gold in Denmark. The somewhat darker Fall from Grace appeared in 2010, and while it reached the top ten and scored a hit with first single "Love Is All...," it was far less successful than their previous efforts. Non-album single "Can't Go Back" appeared in 2012, and live EP Put Your F**king Hands Up was released in 2013. Meanwhile, Paw & Lina branched off and released several songs in their native tongue, including the 2012 Top Ten hit "Stolt af mig selv?," which appeared on the 2014 EP Her Er Paw&Lina. They returned as Infernal with the tropical house-styled 2016 single "Hurricane," followed by 2017's "Weightless," "Holding On," and "Not Alone (Alo Ele Ele)." The more aggressive electro-house track "Fist Up" appeared in 2018, and the band flirted with future bass, trap, and moombahton on subsequent singles. 2020 brought the anthemic "We Luv" and more laid-back "Maria Magdalena," followed by 2021's "Inner Fire." 2022 marked the band's 25th anniversary, and they released several updated versions of their past hits, leading up to the futuristic, sci-fi-influenced full-length Hormesis, which landed in November.
