Ásgeir - Here It Comes (Record Store Day 2014)

Wildlife

The air was thick like honey Looking from a room
The room had open windows To let this springtime through
Evening stood by watchin' At the side of summer's promise
The flowers in her garden Were the envy of her friends

How far are we from dying Is it nearly at an end?
How far are we from dying Is it nearly at an end?

The smoke hung on the skyline The city fell in silence
The sunset, ripe and mellow Was the light to write some thoughts by
Her children watched for father From a window in the wall
Said a prayer for grandpapa And maybe many more
Somewhere in the distance On the road so far away
I heard the sound of life Though the people left for home
Three birds flew off a building Standing proud against the sky
Many more flew with them Spiralled up like laughter
Faster, harder They rose up in a column
Hundreds upon hundreds And twice that many wingspeed
Four miles across Stretched a million miles high
The living pulsing column In the lady of the sky
Feathers thrashed together Locked in that huge swarm
I knew no-one could see it And now that it was gone
I rubbed my eyes and tried to find A reason for the flight
Exodus escape Or was it just for me to see?
The mating of the earth and air Like water is to flowers
The envy of her friends How far are we from dying, is it nearly at an end?

How far are we from dying Is it nearly at an end?
How far are we from dying Is it nearly at an end?

Ásgeir – Going Home (The Toe Rag Acoustic Sessions)

With the release of ‘Dyrd i daudathogn’, Icelandic singer- songwriter Ásgeir has become something of an overnight sensation in his country’s music scene - breaking all records to become Iceland’s fastest selling debut album by a domestic artist.

That was reinstated at the Iceland Music Awards that took place on February 20th, Asgeir making an impressive sweep of the board, picking up Best Pop/Rock Album, Best Newcomer, Icelandicmusic.com Award for online achievement and the Public Choice Award.

Produced by Gudmundur Kristinn Jonsson, Dyrd í dauðathogn (‘In the Silence’) immediately recalls the heavenly vocals of Bon Iver’s Justin Vernon and light electronic touch of British glitch pop sensation James Blake. In Iceland, the unusual poetry of lyrics have attracted almost as much attention as the music itself, in part because they are mostly written by Ásgeir’s 72 year old father.

The songs themselves, however, are all Ásgeir: light and airy, inset with his distinctive melancholic voice their vibrancy elevates their appeal way beyond the folktronica tag.

One such fan of Dyrd i daudathogn was John Grant (‘Queen Of Denmark’) – currently resident of Iceland himself – who has collaborated with Ásgeir to create an English language version, 'In The Silence', which is out now.
