Review by snobb
SPECIAL COLLABORATOR Honorary Collaborator
3 stars Debut album of this Icelandic band opens with short ambient composition ("Silence") full of Nordic air. Next five album songs are almost 10 minutes long each (and often longer), all simple clear melodies. With characteristic Sigur Ros influence, band plays less subtle and psychedelic music, with stronger rock component.

"Beautiful View" is even more acoustic, with minimalistic drums and simple, but nice northern melody, played by guitar again. Step by step album bring you to the world of natural Nordic nature, without tension, rush, nervous breakdowns..... Slow,simple, minimalistic and natural. And not boring.

As usual with many instrumental post-rock bands, this album has limited attraction for listeners outside of post-rock fans circles. For style fans - not bad work, especially for soft Nordic sound lovers.
