All kinds of geeks
are going to like

taste. Prep for
another Lord of
The Rings Mara-

ing renowned
composer Howard
Shore bring J.R.R.
Tolkien’s literary
imagination to life
with his Acad-
emy- and Grammy
Award-winning
score to The Lord
of the Rings: The
Fellowship of the
Ring. Experience
The Lord of the
Rings like you’ve
never done
before, namely,
as the extraor-
dinary dramatic
symphonic work
that it is. If in the
past you’ve been
too distracted
by the amazing
storyline to listen
to the soundtrack,
this event is for
you. See this, and
you’ll understand
why the music
from The Lord
of the Rings is
counted among
film music’s most
complex and
comprehensive
works. ZVS

FALK: GIANT SWAN (UK)
2 September, 20:00,
Gaukurinn, 2.000 ISK
If you were into
Big Bird as a kid
then adult you
is going to LOVE
Giant Swan—a
cross breed
of energised,
aggressive
dance music,
quaking bass
and hypnotic
electronic noise.
Grab a Gaukurinn
vegan cocktail
(we recommend
the Goth Moss)
and fly high. ZVS

Grísalappalísa
7 September, 20:00, Húrra
The Icelandic
band Grísalap-
palísa—a random
mixture of the
words for pig,
leg and Lisa—is
as original as
their name. The
rock band rocks
your world with
lyrics inspired
by Icelandic
literary tradition.
Expect a lot of
hair-flipping and
head-banging—
and potentially
making out with
the singer. ZVS
