Beautiful Star

The Stone That Makes The Statue was inspired by the band flying into Keflavík and invokes the rocky, bleak landscape of Iceland.

Percussion driven, it is a return to the post rock roots of the 4 piece, melodic keyboards and harsh guitars, melody and intensity, booming bass and atmosphere.

Laxá are: 
Jussi Siglarson - Guitar
Bjarne Guðjohnsen - Bass/Vocals
Matthias Helguson - Drums
Mike Taylor - Keyboards

The Stone That Makes The Statue, new Post rock by Laxá

''She who wore the necklace of Hargan Dattle,
bade me to bear my head high in battle, 
when the battle-ice a gleaming sword seeks to shatter a skull,
My death count is high, the blood lust full!''

A full on metal alternative rock escapade!
