Editorial Review:

Album Description:
The tiny, strange, and environmentally harsh Viking country of Iceland has produced some of the world's most original pop music of the past few decades, despite being inhabited by just 300,000 people. Fostered by a physical isolation from the world and temperatures that strongly encourage humans to stay inside, the nation has developed a music that tends just as much towards a light ethereality as it does jagged, experimental harshness. The soundtrack to this ironically-titled music documentary (originally called Gargandi Snilld) mixes lesser-known Icelandic acts (Bang Gang, Minuswith, Slowblow, Mugison) with ones that we can presume live inside the iPods of every other college kid (Sigur R¢s, M£m, Bj"rk). And while there is an unfortunate paucity of rarities by the better known acts, true discoveries abound: Mugison imagines the Kings of Convenience matched with White Hassle; J¢hann J¢hannsson's flotational sounds with the Kraftwerk voice trick are a joy; and you just have to hear the Apparat Organ Quartet.

Average Rating: out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Magic from the North Atlantic
To people, who are not familiar with the new music from Iceland and Faroe Islands, this cd is one of the best introduction for both countries.
Tolkien gives you the visually image, and by listening to this cd you will get the rest. You will both hear and feel the magic of the mysterious North with wild landscapes, sagas, Northern light and siren song - here extremely well preformed in track no. 8 "Brostnar borgir" presenting the vocalist Eivør Pálsdóttir from Faroe Islands.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Wonderfull
A great stage compilation. Singers, musicians, stage performance... all well done to represent the spirit of far, distant and chilly Iceland. Modern sound and contemporary artists singing their lungs while musicians harmoniously pulling strings and banging drums. I liked it. HOWEVER! IF YOU WERE EXPECTING A SOLO Sigur Ros album - it is not. That is a compilation of various artists and Sigur Ros are only presented in the first and last pieces.


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A Masterpiece Indeed!
This album is probably one of the most unique and excellent soundtracks/compilations I've ever heard. It's nice to get a mixture of lesser known Icelandic artists and well known Icelandic artists. Listening to this album makes you feel like you're getting into a one of a kind Icelandic experience. Definitely worth buying.


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - blowingmasterscream
i wanted so badly to get to see the Screaming Masterpiece movie. and finally i did. the experience is amazing, mindblowing. just to get to see Bjork performing live pluto and all is full of love in her last 2003 world tour worth the movie ticket. everything else is a bonus track!!! and what a bonus!!!
from the start with sigur ros, then bang gang and múm... worldless... in between you discover little jewels like the amina girls and apparatt...so you leave the movie theater hoping to make your next holidays trip to iceland!. first step for most of us, poor humans, is get the ost!. you will love this songs, they are all great, original,emotional stuff. if you are about to discover what`s next after Bjork and Sigur ros, well, here`s the first step to heaven. enjoy!


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - This album is really amazing and you should buy it.
This is an amazing compilation and well worth it. It will make you feel deeply and experience a high within yourself and open new closets within yourself. I didn't know what to expect of the artists I didn't know ---usually compilations scare me away even if they have some of my favorite artists on it----but I must say I like every single song (except for sugarcubes). It gives you an idea of Iceland and mixes the energy of the pieces- from high energy to low - in a way that works very well. This is a unqiue compilation- and one of the few that is worth interest in my opinion. Beautiful. And I'm at a loss for good words.
