Editor's review

With dreamy piano melodies and vocals that rise like steam from a sauna, Seabear do a remarkably literal job of evoking classic Icelandic images. Then again, maybe they just sound like Iron and Wine. Both are things we like, and could spend a frosty evening playing.

Biography

This album doesn’t blurt it out: There is no loud “TaDah!”, no exclamation mark. “The ghost that carried us away” flatters in a rather unobtrusive way. However, it has encircled you after the third song at the latest. Fragile hymns of nonchalant casualness, created by the 24-year-old Sindri Már Sigfússon. Guitars, piano, his almost bashful and yet so present voice. “Nature, mortality, love”, these are the topics of his debut album. Even the one who listens only briefly, is able to make them out within the sounds. “Do you remember how the things look when you were young.”
