Sin Fang Bous - Sinkership - Clagour (2008)
Listening to Sin Fang Bous this morn. Dig this tune. The playful open, the way it ebbs and flows, the builds, the unbalanced/structural differences throughout, the unexpected instrumentation… It’s just pretty great and Sindri Sigfússon’s soothing, oftentimes breathy, voice rounds it out perfectly.
In case you’re not familiar, Sin Fang Bous is Sindri Sigfússon’s one-man project. With Sin Fang Bous, the frontman for Seabear, creates dynamic soundscapes with tons of layering, playfully ethereal (sometimes angelic) tonality, emotive (sometimes intense) lyrics, and instrument-rich, lush (borderline folksy) melodies.
Another great Icelandic export (i.e. Sigur Ros, Mum). And, quite nice on a perfectly, lazy Saturday morning.
