Kjarr

from Aftur by Stafrænn Hakon

/
  • Compact Disc (CD) + Digital Album

    The Icelandic band Stafrænn Hákon was born in 2001 as a lo-fi experimental project and has been steadily evolving ever since. Today its a full band which incidentally has released its 11th album titled Aftur. Aftur follows 2017's self-released instrumental album Hausi and two Darla released full length albums Eternal Horse and Sanitas.

    After Stafrænn Hákon released its instrumental album Hausi in 2017, the band decided to delve into the melodic aspect of music, focusing on harmonized vocals and subtle, yet dynamic instrumentation.

    The band´s trademark soundscape is clearly recognizable on Aftur with floaty electric guitars, voice, subtle atmospheres and acoustic textures such as harps and piano.

    The album Aftur features 10 songs in total. The main vocalist in Stafrænn Hákon is, as before, the affable architect Magnús Freyr Gíslason. The Dutchman Minco Eggersman, a long time collaborator appears on one song and the Icelandic singer/songwriter Benni Hemm Hemm appears on one song as well.

    Aftur can be described as a magical musical journey through Stafrænn Hákon´s subtle atmospheric world and melodic/ambient approach to rock and pop music.

    Includes unlimited streaming of Aftur via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.

lyrics

Kyrrlátar hreyfingar
í litla skóg
Þeir lifðu þetta af
tóku af stað
sungu í kór

Engann vantar, húfu eða hanska
tindátar dansa

Ég viðurkenni það, ég ráfaði af stað
en löngu kominn heim
Og inn í opið kjarr, ég á að sofna þar
Sólin, sólin mun afhenda nýjan dag
