    Loved it on the first listen and it just gets better and better each time. Bit of a mix between James Blake and Bon Iver. This is cliche but it does take you away to another place

    Although it's unlikely In the Silence will have quite the same impact on the charts beyond the shores of Iceland, it does suggest another musical gem has been unearthed from the island's formidable pool of talent.
