Watching the preview for the Secret Life of Walter Mitty (click the link for a trailer), I became reacquainted with Of Monsters And Men and the fantastic journey that their music takes the listener through. The band hails from Iceland where they developed their sound and competed in the Músiktilraunir yearly battle of the bands which began their journey to record and produce their first single in 2011 track Little Talks. Little Talks made its way onto their only major release album My Head is an Animal. The band speaks of their music as almost isolation and seclusion that brings them to their own mischief and fancy.
“Iceland can be a very isolated country and that translates to the music, we get stuck in our little world”, Nanna Hilmarsdóttir cosinger/guitarist.
This Summer take an adventure and listen in to Of Monsters and Men if you haven't had the opportunity. Almost every song brings uptempo pounding beats, adventure and fun.
