    something about Icelandic language that I love. my first love (in music) was Bjork , this group has some of those vibes but are totally unique to themselves as well. I feel like I just found a treasure. very awesome ,raw,music, something I miss from the 80's punk scene and 90's alternative.

      If you look up their first performance at the city library in 2013, Laufey gets on the floor to read the words from a notebook. They hadn't rehearsed much. Perhaps getting down on the floor became part of the act for this song. Anyway, totally amazing.
