Valdimar // Sitt Synist Hverjum

// CD // 2018 // sung in Icelandic // Rock // 9 tracks // 38 minutes //

Sitt Sýnist Hverjum is the fourth album (and last to date) by a 6-piece band formed in 2009, which achieved success in Iceland with its first album, Undraland, notably thanks to the title Yfirgefinn, with its very joydivision-esque rhythm.

Sitt Sýnist Hverjum opens with the very dark Of seint (Too late) whose trombone line underlines the lyricism in counterpoint to an almost military drumming - there is an air of Woodkid in there.

The album unfolds this very dense writing over 9 heady tracks.
