Sin Fang Bous - Clangour


I really want to go to Iceland. After watching the Sigur Ros documentary, Heima, I decided that one day I'll hit Iceland and explore or something. Not only does Iceland have some amazing landscapes, they produce some alright musicians.

This particular Icelandian (?) is named Sindri Mar Sigfusson. Under the moniker Sin Fang Bous, Sigfusson makes cute folky/synthy jams. The sounds here are kind of hard to classify because you get that Morr Music feeling of kind of sad, subdued acoustic songs. But then there's a lot of weird things going on around it; matched with odd rhythms and interesting keyboard sounds. Sigfusson's voice is strikingly dry and somewhat muddled and stumbled over at times. But the songs all have tight melodies and structures to hold the song together. I'm interested in this guy's live set up. Could be very interesting to play this stuff life.
