Magic from the North Atlantic

Tolkien gives you the visually image, and by listening to this cd you will get the rest. To people, who are not familiar with the new music from Iceland and Faroe Islands, this cd is one of the best introduction for both countries. You will both hear and feel the magic of the mysterious North with wild landscapes, sagas, Northern light and siren song - here extremely well preformed in track no. 8 "Brostnar borgir" presenting the vocalist Eivør Pálsdóttir from Faroe Islands.

Wonderfull
Singers, musicians, stage performance. A great stage compilation. . . all well done to represent the spirit of far, distant and chilly Iceland. Modern sound and contemporary artists singing their lungs while musicians harmoniously pulling strings and banging drums. I liked it. HOWEVER! IF YOU WERE EXPECTING A SOLO Sigur Ros album - it is not. That is a compilation of various artists and Sigur Ros are only presented in the first and last pieces.


A Masterpiece Indeed!
It's nice to get a mixture of lesser known Icelandic artists and well known Icelandic artists. This album is probably one of the most unique and excellent soundtracks/compilations I've ever heard. Listening to this album makes you feel like you're getting into a one of a kind Icelandic experience. Definitely worth buying. .

and finally i did. i wanted so badly to get to see the Screaming Masterpiece movie. the experience is amazing, mindblowing. just to get to see Bjork performing live pluto and all is full of love in her last 2003 world tour worth the movie ticket. everything else is a bonus track!!! and what a bonus!!!
from the start with sigur ros, then bang gang and múm. . . worldless. . . in between you discover little jewels like the amina girls and apparatt. . . so you leave the movie theater hoping to make your next holidays trip to iceland!. first step for most of us, poor humans, is get the ost!. you will love this songs, they are all great, original,emotional stuff. if you are about to discover what`s next after Bjork and Sigur ros, well, here`s the first step to heaven. enjoy!.


This album is really amazing and you should buy it.
It will make you feel deeply and experience a high within yourself and open new closets within yourself. This is an amazing compilation and well worth it. I didn't know what to expect of the artists I didn't know ---usually compilations scare me away even if they have some of my favorite artists on it----but I must say I like every single song (except for sugarcubes). It gives you an idea of Iceland and mixes the energy of the pieces- from high energy to low - in a way that works very well. This is a unqiue compilation- and one of the few that is worth interest in my opinion. Beautiful. And I'm at a loss for good words.
