Húrra
Naustin (C3)| 21:00 | 1,500 ISK
Singer-songwriter Helgi Valur has been on the scene for a while,
yet his fourth and most recent concept album, ‘Notes from the
Underground’, may very well be his most wholesome work yet. It
was recorded in a mental institution and halfway house in Berlin
as he recovered from a mental breakdown, and he says over
the phone that it spans his entire cycle of self-destruction and
mayhem to resurrection and redemption. “This is the first album I
wrote sober, and I feel it is the best work I’ve ever done,” he says,
“and in it I managed to draw out all of the elements that make me
who I am.” It features a guitar solo, a rap chapter, and lots of good
bits in between. His live show is supported by members of Muck,
Grísalappalísa and Oyama. GB

Húrra
Naustin (D3) | 20:00 | 1,000 ISK
A massive mélange of metal will shake Húrra to its core, with
titans Beneath headlining the show. Their newest release
‘The Barren Throne’ dropped a month ago and features a new
singer, Benedikt Natanael Bjarnason, whose meaty growl greatly
complements the band’s technical style. Black metal mavericks
Misþyrming (pictured) will also perform, fresh off of their first
international gig at Norway’s Inferno Fest. Their debut album
‘Söngvar elds og óreiðu’ came out this year to massive acclaim
worldwide. Also on the lineup are the earth-shattering Blood
Feud, Grit Teeth, and Stoic. If you’re looking for carnage, this
night is guaranteed to be truly brutal. HJC
