Of Monsters And Men - 'My Head Is An Animal'
October 13, 2011 at 1:55pm
Of Monsters and Men have had quite a year. After signing to Record Records just a year after their first gig with their definitive line-up, they headed to the studio in March 2011 with engineer / producer Aron Þór Arnarsson to create the debut album that everyone's talking about.
The band's sound is pure and almost entirely acoustic except for one electric guitar; drums are usually absent adding to the softer side along with vocal harmonies and glockenspiels. Their band name is apt and fitting to their lyrics, which mostly comprise stories of all kinds of monsters, both fictional and human.
The release features the popular single 'Little Talks' and is out now in Iceland, international release TBC. You can snap it up on Gogoyoko too.
