They're music is general mixed with the variety of experimental tracks they record. You'll usually never hear the same version of the same song often, especially when played on the radio. They like to make a lot of remixes of their own work several times over, probably because that's where they get their "finished" copies of the tracks they publish. Most of their songs are for atheistic value, giving off a mood or tone which can then be interpreted anyway by the title - which are sometimes very interesting. This is probably because they vocals that are in the song are often a droning or a repetitious chorus that is more of an instrument than a voice that is speaking or conveying an idea. Several tracks from their new album Go Go Smear The Poison Ivy include titles like: Blessed Brambles, They Made Frogs Smoke 'Til They Exploded, and Dancing Behind My Eyelids which won critic acclaim for its catchyness and its different approach to its vocals.After looking into the band I found out that there have been many members and people that have helped make their music. When they founded in 1997, they were four including Gunnar Örn Tynes, Örvar Þóreyjarson Smárason and the twin sisters Gyða and Kristín Anna Valtýsdóttir. Gyða recently left the band to continue studying in Reykjavík. Now the members only consist of Gunnar, Örvar and Kristín. Being an experimental music band, they're members tend to fluctuate as new things are added and tried.
To describe how their music is in a general sense, I'd have to say mercurial. Sometimes its very "experimental" and you have to listen carefully and many times before anything emerges from the music. Other times its very strait-forward and fun to listen to. The tack above Dancing Behind My Eyelids is one of these fun and catchy melodies. Also, it gives a much more lyrical approach to the songs center or "soul." It's a good example of their music.
