Mum
![]()
Two years (almost to the day) after their previous release, Iceland's eccentric pop maestros mum have returned with their fifth studio album, Sing Along to Songs You Don't Know. Sing Along... recalls sand running through fingers or ripples on a lake; it's an ode to the light in its different shapes, from a fading bulb to the blinding sun. Alternately sunny and melancholy, Sing Along... flows like the tides: now ebullient, now brooding, cacophony resolving into tight melody.

Three songs, which pefectly show the variety of Múm's music. Prophecies... is merely a naive and overly sweet chorus, that gets more and more euphoric in its repitition, while Amen Flutes turns out as an excentric and strange popsong once it has built up from a glorious mess of sound. At least Krippling shows the band's adult side. A h [ read more ]

"Prophecies..." features a naive and overly-sweet chorus that gets more and more euphoric with its repetition, while "Amen Flutes" is an eccentric and strange pop song that builds up a glorious mess of sounds.
