And I thought it was going to be about Canadian bands.



I think Sigur Ros for me, but I do like Björk and Abba a lot too. I used to listen to Roxette. Never got into Opeth much.

Watching while most appreciating a sunset in the moment need not diminish all the glorious sunsets I have observed before. It can be much like that with music for me.

Björk's Utopia was one of the most transformative albums for me in terms of the way I compose and produce, so I have to pick Björk.

I use they/them pronouns (feel free to ask me about this!)

Why only Icelandic & Swedish artists? I don´t think these artists construct any particular nordic scene. Also I can understand ABBA with those other artists but Roxette!? But anyway from these artists, that any of not my big favourites, it´s Björk. Just because her great Vespertine & Medulla -albums. Opeth after growl vocals is quite good too.

Alamaailman Vasarat Is from Finland, no?

They get my vote, anyway…

Bjork, just ahead of the mighty hammers. I would also add Sigur Ros and Samla Mammas Manna (plus various offshoots) to this list.
