Múm are an Icelandic pop band with euphonic, yet tumultuous leanings, mixing sound with music and vice versa. The group has taken many forms and shapes since it started in 1997 and rarely cease to surprise and confuse. Carrying on from the success of their 'Sing Along to Songs You Don't Know' and after finishing a marathon live tour of the USA, Europe and the UK in 2009, (of which a vast array of beautiful images can be found here) Múm are now available select festival dates and DJ sets this year.
Check out this beguiling video for their title track 'Sing Along', directed by Kevin Phillips.
