The name makes some people pause. But that’s the point. Alcoholic Faith Mission was never about provocation for its own sake—it was about honesty. When founders Thorben Seierø J. and Sune Sølund first came across a Brooklyn church called Apostolic Faith Mission, they began talking about faith as a kind of crutch—just as alcohol had been for their own mothers. Both can hold you up, but both can also hollow you out. That tension between comfort and collapse became their name, and the emotional terrain they’ve written from ever since.
The words are a way of holding contradictions together: despair and joy, damage and devotion, endings and beginnings. That richness often gets missed if you only glance at the name, but it’s there in every song.
Their new single, “The Hospital”, is a song about waking up in the aftermath — where love, grief and memory blur like fluorescent light through a half-open door. It’s a quiet reckoning with the wounds we carry, and the strange peace that sometimes comes with accepting them. A hymn for those who keep moving, even when the heart is still healing. Once again it’s a song suspended between tension and release, intimate yet expansive, and it captures AFM at their most hauntingly human.
This is what they are. This is Alcoholic Faith Mission.
