All My Demons Greeting Me as a Friend is the debut studio album by Norwegian singer-songwriter Aurora. It was released on 11 March 2016 by Decca and Glassnote Records. The album followed the release of her debut extended play (EP) Running with the Wolves (2015), which contained two songs that were later included on the album. Aurora collaborated with several producers including Odd Martin Skålnes, Magnus Skylstad, Nicolas Rebscher, Alf Lund Godbolt, and Electric during its recording.
All My Demons Greeting Me as a Friend has been described predominantly as an electropopalbum, along with folk, electronic, synth-pop, Nordic-folk, and alternative pop that explores fantasy, heartache, life, and death through its lyrics. The album was met with positive reviews from music critics. At the Spellemannprisen '16, All My Demons Greeting Me as a Friend won Pop Solo Artist and was nominated for Album of the Year; the music video of the song "I Went Too Far" won Music Video of the Year. Commercially, the album topped the Norwegian albums chart in its first week, while also reaching the top 50 in various North American and European countries, in addition to attaining modest positions on several European charts. The album was certified platinum in Norway, and has sold more than 500,000 copies worldwide.
Six singles supported the album, all of which were supplemented by accompanying music videos. "Runaway" became a sleeper hit six years later and peaked at number one on the BillboardBubbling Under Hot 100 in the United States. The second single, "Running with the Wolves" reached number 72 in Germany, becoming her first song to chart in that country. An acoustic version of "Murder Song (5, 4, 3, 2, 1)" was released in August 2015 while its studio version was released a month later. Her cover of the song "Half the World Away" by Oasis was released for the 2015 John Lewis Christmas advert and included in the album's deluxe edition. The singles "Conqueror", "I Went Too Far", and "Winter Bird" were released throughout 2016.
