Stórsveit Nix Noltes (Iceland - Folk...)

Really good band which I just happened to click on a review of at a non-Prog music website that I don't frequent (NME) without knowing anything about their style of music, and so was very pleasantly surprised when I checked myspace. Here's the review: http://www.nme.com/reviews/storsveit-nix-noltes/10330

Sort of psychedelic Eastern European (Bulgraian/Balkan) folk with post-rock/ post-punk qualities. Iceland does have a terrific music scene.  They've toured with Animal Collective which I had thought was in the archives.

Be interested to hear what others think.

And thanks (incidentally, I'm preparing for a trip in six days to East Asia, and will be gone for more than three weeks, so who knows when I'd get the chance to prepare the addition if approved -- though I'm pretty bad about such things as is).

Well they have finally been added
