Talk

Jussi and Natasha arrived at the studio first and were just setting up when Jussi started playing the intro to "Lipstick and Ash " and Natasha began to fill out the strings.

By the time the rest of the band arrived the idea was pretty well formed and the song, cinematic post rock, is unusual as the drums and bass only feature for 8 bars, the rest being strings and guitar.

Laxá & Heima Kvartett are:
Jussi Siglarson - Guitar
Bjarne Guðjohnsen - Bass
Matthias Helguson - Drums
Mike Taylor - Keyboards
Lisbeth Heima - Violin
Sif Árnadóttir - Violin
Natasha Guðmundsdóttir - Viola
Ída Sigurðardóttir - Cello

Lipstick and Ash by Laxá -  Alternative Rock | Post Rock

Produced by Andrew Adkins
Recorded at Electrahead Media - Nashville, TN

A Revolver In The Field

And Who Were You asks the essential question - who do you think you are anyway? It's a song that I've had in my back pocket for a while, but never liked the original recording/arrangement or my vocals. Well here it is today, re-recorded with Em belting out the angry lyrics.  We hope you like this little ditty of ours.  If you do, please hit the Like button and feel free to repost.  As always, thanks for stopping by to have a listen.

And Who Were You (2025)

Road signs, flashing by
Burn the gas, don’t ask why
Oh, oh, oh
Fists tight, eyes red
Too much noise in my head



Dust trails, blacktop
Every mile, I can’t stop
Oh, oh, oh
Voices fade, I drive on
Another night, another song



Dust trails, blacktop
Every mile, I can’t stop
Oh, oh, oh
Voices fade, I drive on
Another night, another song



Almost home, but I can’t stay
Almost home, drift away
Almost home, on the run
Almost home, chasing the sun



Foot down, feel the flame
Nothing here feels the same



Almost home, but I can’t stay
Almost home, drift away
Almost home, on the run
Almost home, chasing the sun



Oh, oh, oh
Almost home, almost home
Oh, oh, oh
Almost home, still alone

Almost Home

The Number


Water drips quietly, I'm afraid to hear "yes"
You're leaving, and you're leaving forever
It's hard to talk and explain anything
Maybe I'll learn to live anew
Step out the door now, heart, hold on
Anyway, I'm only with you

We never forgave each other's betrayals
And we didn't know what to give each other in return
But love will seep from the wound
I will beat my wings against the glass to get to you

But love will seep from the wound
I will beat my wings against the glass to get to you

White smoke from cigarettes, and the eyes change color
There's no more time in the broken cup
Later everything will pass, my love sails
Somewhere in the sky, who will dare to catch it?
The truth in silence, heart, hold on
I'll stay, but I'm with you

We never forgave each other's betrayals
And we didn't know what to give each other in return
But love will seep from the wound
I will beat my wings against the glass

We never forgave each other's betrayals
And we didn't know what to give each other in return

We never forgave each other's betrayals
And we didn't know what to give each other in return
But love will seep from the wound
I will beat my wings against the glass to get to you

But love will seep from the wound
I will beat my wings against the glass to get to you
