Faroese folk singer/songwriter Eivor's Slor is a collection of newly composed songs, which she sang in her native Faroese language. The album is the successor of the English-language album Bridges, and even though these are two different albums in different languages, there is a connection between the two records. Where Bridges was light and above all yearning, Slor sounds more-raw and reflective. Bridges was inspired by friendship, love and homesickness. It deals with the bridges between humans, relationships between people, places, and also things that touch everyone. Slor, on the other hand, is about wanderlust, separation and the search for peace. A veil can be a symbol of a border between the present and the past, but a bridal veil, on the other hand, represents happiness and devotion above all. Eivor explains the process of the sibling albums: "When I wrote the songs, the songwriting was first done in English and right after that it came into my head in Faroese -- like a kind of mirror image." Thus, it is not only two separate works, but also a composite moment in the song process.
