Curiosamente el grupo empezó a triunfar primero en Estados Unidos y posteriormente en Europa, donde tienen para este año una extensa gira y actuarán en diversos festivales, pero de momento parece ser que en España no van a pasarse y eso que por fin las radios españolas los están pinchando.
Su primer álbum "My head is an animal" ha cosechado muy buenas criticas, comparándolos con Arcade Fire o los también islandeses Sigur Ros, aunque su sonido folk poco tiene que ver con ellos, si acaso un toque oscuro en sus letras enigmáticas y misteriosas. De hecho, ellos no se pronuncian al sentido de su tema estrella "Little talks", dejando que sea el público el que le de su propia interpretación.
La versión que cobra más fuerza es que trata de una mujer que habla con su difunto esposo, aunque podria ser que tratase sobre la enfermedad mental o sobre adicciones dificiles de superar:
Hey! Hey! Hey!
I don't like walking around this old and empty house
I don't like walking around this old and empty house
So hold my hand, I'll walk with you, my dear
The stairs creak as I sleep, it's keeping me awake
It's the house telling you to close your eyes
Some days I can't even dress myself
It's killing me to see you this way
Cause though the truth may vary
This ship will carry
Our bodies safe to shore
Hey! Hey! Hey!
There's an old voice in my head that's holding me back
Well tell her that I miss our little talks
Soon it will all be over, and buried with our past
We used to play outside when we were young
And full of life and full of love
Some days I feel like I'm wrong when I am right
Your mind is playing tricks on you my dear
Though the truth may vary
This ship will carry
Our bodies safe to shore
Hey!
Don't listen to a word I say
Hey!
The screams all sound the same
Hey!
Though the truth may vary
This ship will carry
Our bodies safe to shore
You're gone, gone, gone away
I watched you disappear
All that's left is a ghost of you
Now we're torn, torn, torn apart
There's nothing we can do
Just let me go, we'll meet again soon
Now wait, wait, wait for me
Please hang around
I'll see you when I fall asleep
Hey!
Don't listen to a word I say
Hey!
The screams all sound the same
Hey!
Though the truth may vary
This ship will carry
Our bodies safe to shore
Don't listen to a word I say
Hey!
The screams all sound the same
Hey!
Though the truth may vary
This ship will carry
Our bodies safe to shore
Though the truth may vary
This ship will carry
Our bodies safe to shore
Though the truth may vary
This ship will carry
Our bodies safe to shore
