Review title: Original, tedious, pointless
Product review: Ok, they have an original sound. The lead male singer sings like a female ingenue - which is good as he does a good job of getting the maximum emotional value out of the Icelandic/nonsense lyrics (which serve as a blank slate that you can superimpose any meaning on - which isn't a bad idea, either). A few of these songs do evoke the barren Icelandic landsscape that has plenty of volcanoes, ice, and few (no?) trees. I'm afraid that all of that is not enough to sustain an entire cd. This gets tedious quickly. A lot of droning in minor chords, music that goes nowhere, etc. Yes, it is different. But if it's only appeal is novelty, the novelty - like all novelties - wears off quickly. They need more substance and less surface sheen.
