OF MONSTERS AND MEN "my head is an animal" cd, 2012
one of my 2012 end of year purchases...
these guys are from Iceland(isnt that where Bjork is from also?)...
lots of well crafted alt pop songe happening here, sort of a Mumfords/Arcade Fire cross thing happening throughout...
the album reached #1 here in Australia and in their home country, and made the top10 in the UK,CAN,NZ and the US...
four singles were lifted from the album, Dirty Paws(my favourite on here) which hit the top ten in Iceland...
King And Lionheart and Little Talks both made it to #1 in their home country and also made top10 here,top20 Stateside and the UK, and Mountain Sound which doesnt appear to have been released in Iceland but still made top30 here and in NZ...
all up, a good album with lovely melodies and sounds...
