Jacbosen, Austurstræti, Saturday 22pm
1000ISK
Are you prepared to witness an audio-visual extravaganza that may just blow your
mind? Jacbosen on Austurstræti invites you to an evening of sensory combustion
courtesy of the collaboration between the Electric Ethics and the Neo-collective
movement, August 1st,
On this explosive night, Stereo Hypnosis are set to introduce compositions from
their upcoming album ‘Hypnogogia’ – jointly inspired by Jules Verne’s Journey to the
Centre of the Earth and the awesomeness of the Icelandic landscape – and infamous
Gjöll, a cooperation between electronic pioneer Jóhann Eiríksson and Icelandic
Anarchist Movement spokesman Sigurður Harðarson, will show you how it’s done.
There’s no forgetting noise monster AMFJ, promoting his debut cassette
‘Itemhljóð & Veinan’ released on his own FALK label – this guy will certainly leave
your ears bleeding. Even more audio and visual stimulation is to be provided by Wc
Einar Krautzwel and entry is the dreary sum of 1000 ISK. Sweet Jesus. JB

Getting Lost in Iceland
Grand Rokk
Edinburgh based band Lost in Audio is going a mini tour around Iceland in the
next few weeks, starting out in the Westmann Islands and, of course, making an
appearance in the rugged pub we all treasure so dearly: Grand Rokk. Lost in Audio
play a complicated strain of alternative rock and describe their anthems (rather
than songs) as epic. They have quite the background, having ravished the charts
on BBC Radio 1 and XFM and found fans for themselves in such famed bands as
Fall Out Boy. Their members aren’t exclusively musicians, as the drummer is also a
Black belt in Judo and the singer is a qualified skiing instructor. So what to expect?
Besides having the opportunity of sinking yourselves into their epic hymns you
might be facing some judo chops and a skiing guitarist. Skk

Jack Live Summer Festival
Dillon Beer garden
The Band Called ‘I’
Sódóma Reykjavík 21PM
Rock pub Dillon will, for the second
time this year, play host to the genuine
rock festival Jack Live. The festival
was originally established to counter
the rising beer prices and expensive
concert tickets, and it has succeeded.
The event also shows off Dillon’s
marvelous beer garden, the perfect
place for BBQ’s and concerts. Some of
Iceland’s leading rock acts will perform,
including Dr. Spock, Brain Police, Dikta
and Vicky. In addition to the music a
bunch of special events will be going
down and the Jack Live grill will be on
fire the whole weekend! Skk
You might not have heard of these
guys, but according to their myspace
manifesto they're pretty great. "Do you
like Maradona, The Supremes, yourself,
Fleetwood Mac or The Beatles? If you
do, then Ég should be right up your
alley." Big words, huh? The band Ég
was formed somewhere in the year
2002 and have since then released two
albums, with the third on its way. Their
album titles are in harmony with their
manifesto, bearing the smug names
“Fun Songs” and “Album of the year.”
What can you make out of this? Are
these guys complacent assholes or
ironic comedians? I, for one, would like
to check it out, and, who knows, this
concert might even end up being the
“concert of the year.” Skk
