A six-piece indie folk / indie pop band from Iceland whose debut album My Head is an Animal was just released a few weeks ago (though released last year in Iceland). Have been listening to it constantly since then. Absolutely love it!

Anyone else a fan?

 

 

And if there is already a thread for this, please merge where appropriate. :)

Yup :) I think I discovered them on Iceland Air (they have a great selection of Icelandic artists). Lovely band.

I heard Little Talks and thought it was really nice!

One of the few albums if purchased this year

I'm gonna be bluntly honest and say these guys are one of the most obnoxious new bands all year.

It's about time this band got a thread. Love Love Love is just, it's just so perfect.

I love their album! My favorite is "King and Lionheart"

What makes you say that?

Great band ! I really like Mountain sound and Lion's heart:D

I love most of the songs on the album. I think my least favourite would be From Finner and Love Love Love. Everything else is awesome.

 

Absolutely love Slow and Steady.

My two favorites.

They are part of NZ/AUS line of next year's Laneway Festival.

 

Really hope they'll be part of the Singapore lineup. Really need to see them live.

I like Little Talks quite a lot. :nice:

Has anyone seen them live?

 

My friend's going to it, asked me if I wanted to go, and I like "Yeah sure, one of them has a toothbrush in his pocket, I'd be a fool to miss it."

 

Just wondered whether they were any good, aside from their dental practicalities.

I haven't but going by how their songs sound on the album, I'm assuming they'll sound pretty epic live.

 

I didn't know about this toothbrush thing!

Yeah! They were at Reading and Leeds doing an acoustic set, and the beardy lead singer had a toothbrush in his pocket. I told the lead singer in my band he had to do the same, I think he told me to piss off. :cry:

 

(1000th post, woo.)

Lol. That's hilarious. Do you know why he does that?

Ahhh! They are going to be part of Laneway Festival in Singapore in Jan!!! Can't wait!!!!! :D

LOVE THIS SONG!

My second favorite Icelandic band after Sigur Ros. They are simply amazing especially Little Talks and King and Lionheart ;)

The new one is pretty!
