Battle of the Bands (Sort Of)
Mammút / Samaris
This issue’s picker is none other than the fantastic Óli Dóri. In
addition to being one of Reykjavík’s more prolific DJs, Óli is
also the operations manager at the best cinema in Reykjavík,
Bíó Paradís, runs music website straum.is, and is a frequent
contributing writer for the Grapevine. He says he’s drawn to
music, art shows, films and cultural events that are energetic,
ambitious, beautiful, and leave something for him to think about.
You can find the events our picker of the issue found to be
interesting spread out over the music and art pages, marked with
this icon.
Two of Iceland’s hippest bands unite to put on a concert by
themselves, without any label or bookers, just for the chance to
mess with each other’s sounds. One of the most original young
trios around, Samaris blend Icelandic folk sensibilities with
thumping beats and synths. Mammút, on the other hand, are true
wizards of post-punk and art-rock. Set in the old theatre of Gamla
Bíó, the gig promises to be unique in more ways than one. CMD
