Although not as high-profile as Björk, Ásgeir has joined the limited number of Icelandic artists known in France, along with the intergalactic experimenters of Sigur Rós and the upbeat pop band Of Monsters and Men.
His thing is the perfect melody, instantly sounding like a classic, the elegant melancholy, the perfect match with the landscapes of his country, which inspired the sublime Heimförink , also recorded in English under the title Going Home .
While his albums are easy to find, Ísland Gallery offers a limited-edition boxed set of Afterglow with the vinyl album, a CD version including 4 previously unreleased tracks, a 45T vinyl of two tracks, including a cover of Where is my mind? by the Pixies, a booklet of photos and lyrics and 4 large-format photos.
