In 2018, Tveitan released "Àmr", his seventh studio album. The title of the album is an old Norse word for "loathsome" or "black" and reflects the introspective nature of the songs. Tveitan added that the word "Àmr", could also mean "rust red" and that the concept of a "room without walls" was a prevalent metaphor when working on the album. In comparison to previous albums, "Àmr" also features a greater use of electronic sounds, including analog synthesizers, that add to the intimate feeling of the music.
