Producer: Aron Pór Arnarsson, Jacquire King, Of Monsters And Men
1st studio album - #6 US (Platinum), #3 UK, #1 AUS, #4 CAN
singles - Little Talks - #20 US, #12 UK, #7 AUS, #55 CAN
.............Dirty Paws
.............Mountain Sound - #66 UK, #26 AUS, #69 CAN
.............King And Lionheart
MTV and Billboard nominations but no wins
The group may have a hard time following this unexpected hit up. Of course that was due to the success of the Little Talks single. With 3
singles after that not coming close to it's sales, the pressure is on for the follow up which I would think it is time for. Love the accents of
the 2 vocalists. Must be the Icelandic thing. A couple of tracks failed for me but overall this is a good album. Mumford and Sons is the most
used comparison but the female vocalist takes that to the next level. Hopefully this groups next album will fare better for me than Mumford and
Sons sophomore release did.
