![]() I can understand some of the references in other reviews to their music sounding like Pink Floyd as there are certain sounds - timbres - that are like 'Floyd, but little similarity to the structures of their songs. Of course we all reach for similarities to what has gone before - doesn't the conclusion of Viőrar Vel Til Loftárasa sound like part of the orchestral climax to "A Day in the Life"? The other band I was reminded of was - honest - their Scandanavian cousins, A-Ha - no, really, - the vocals, and some of the song structures have similarities. Production qualities are 1st class, and as an aside, I do think the CD packaging is excellent - simple, stylish, oozes quality. 3 stars is not meant as faint praise; this is a good, just not great, album; certainly well worth a listen.
