History

Iceage were formed in 2008, when the members of the band averaged 17 years old. They signed to Escho to release their debut 7" in 2009 and later on also to Tambourhinoceros in Denmark and Dais Records in the United States. They were then picked up by What's Your Rupture? Records for international release, and their debut album New Brigade was released in January 2011 in Denmark and on 21 June 2011, in the US.
In February 2013, Iceage released their second studio album, You're Nothing, after signing with the independent record label Matador Records. It earned a four star rating from Allmusic and four-and-a-half stars out of five from Humo.
Iceage's third studio album, Plowing Into the Field of Love, was released in October 2014 by Matador. The album marked a shift for the band, moving away from their hardcore punk roots and embracing a broader sonic pallet, as well as influences like Nick Cave and Leonard Cohen. All three albums received a nomination for IMPALA's European Independent Album of the Year Award. Iceage released their fourth album, Beyondless, on 4 May 2018 through Matador.
On 7 May 2021, Iceage released their fifth album Seek Shelter. It was their first album working with an outside producer, and their first album to feature guitarist Casper Morilla, who joined the band in 2019.
