We collaborated with singer of upcoming band from iceland Rokkuro, in order to make a skng that will coincede with our appearance at this years Iceland Airwaves (which will be amazing!)

we are very happy with the final result, hope you like it


prrss release blah blah:


This is not your usual combo: a mesmerising female vocalist from Iceland backed up by one of the leading bands of the Athenian indie scene!

‘Harmur Fuglsins’ (Icelandic for Sorrow of the Bird) is the arresting outcome of a collaboration infused by the strikingly contrasting geographical and artistic backgrounds of it’s creators: on the one hand FILM‘s nebulous dark-wave amalgamation of post-punk and electronic facets – a seasoned band with more than 10 years of experience, recent appearances at SPOT Festival, Eurosonic Noorderslag and Popkomm and support slots for The Cure, New Order, Iggy & the Stooges and The Flaming Lips – and on the other hand Hildur Kristín Stefánsdóttir, the soothing voice of Rökkurró, Iceland‘s finest folk-pop outfit and prime export with an upcoming performance at Ja Ja Ja, the Nordic Clubnight in London, and a second extensive European tour in the making.

Now add to the equation a sublime remix by reputable Icelandic lunatics FM Belfast and there you have it!

FILM will meet Hildur Kristín at Iceland Airwaves for the first time and they will perform ‘Harmur Fuglsins’ together on stage.

Press quotes on Hildur Kristín:
“A cello-playing frontwoman with a lovely voice� - Clash Magazine (UK)
“Other-worldly vocals� - Snipe (UK)

“Visually strong expression� - Gaffa (DK)
“FILM are an exhilarating addition to the scene of art-rock� - Gogoyoko (ICE)

there's some sort of skipped beat, i reckon. anywayz, amazing track, really dig the jilted dreaminess of it.
