Our Picks

lowercase: Hekla Magnúsdóttir
August 12th - 21:30 - Prikið - Free!
Theremin-playing
experimental
musician Hekla
Magnúsdóttir
(who performs
under the
singular moniker
“Hekla”) will apply
her considerable
talents to a movie
of her choice
as part of the
lowercase nights
series at Prikið on
August 12th. This
mellow Sunday
night concert se-
ries sees notable
musicians from
the Reykjavík
scene improvis-
ing a soundtrack
to a movie—usu-
ally a cult classic
of some descrip-
tion—in real time.
Hekla’s eerie,
atmospheric, ab-
stract theremin
melodies could
easily lend them-
selves to all kinds
of films, from ob-
scure B-movies,
to the creepy old
black and white
Nosferatu flicks,
to a psychedelic
sci-fi epic like The
Fantastic Planet;
but who knows,
really. Maybe
she’ll surprise
everyone and do
Platoon or Ameri-
can Pie or X-Men
III or some shit.
Show up early for
a good spot. JR

Hamell On Trial
August 16 - 20:00
Húrra - 2,000 ISK
Pure political
spoken word
punk takes
over for one
raucous night.
Think the Velvet
Underground
but stand-up
comedy. HJC

Þerapía & Rex
Pistols
August 14 - 20:00
Harpa - 2,000 ISK
Intriguing elec-
tronic pop duo
Þerapía (“Thera-
py,” in English) &
goth-pop starlet
Rex Pistols are
here to make it
clear. HJC

Pollapönk
August 12 - 16:00
Gljúfrasteinn - 2,500 ISK
Bring the kids! Popular Eurovision
faves Pollapönk (“puddle punk”)
will perform and keep the summer
spirit alive. That said, we cannot
promise the weather will do the
same. Fingers crossed for sun.
Sending thoughts and prayers for
Iceland's merry band of bearded
kindergarten teachers. HJC

Lord Pusswhip / Good Moon
Deer / Allenheime
August 23 - 20:00 - Húrra - 1,500 ISK
The weirdest bunch in town is here
to make you uncomfortable and
possibly ready to boogie. Hazy, noisy,
dreamy, dark—it’ll basically be the
musical equivalent to an awesome
ketamine trip. Except we're relatively
sure they don't sell ketamine here,
as we're not in 'Party Monster' but
downtown Reykjavík. HJC
