    7:38 'till the end of the song: fantastic build up, fantastic minimalistic atmosphere. Just can't get enough of it.

      It's definitely moving, very visceral, all the wounds are exposed, vulnerability, all the love that was thrown away, all the love left behind, all the passion remembered, rejection, the desire to continue loving someone who already got over you OR someone who refuses to get back at you even though they want you back also
      I get all those deep feelings whenever I listen to it (now in my mind.)

      I was completely blown away when seeing them as support of Amorphis last fall (twice) as I didn't know them before. That were definitely two of the most powerful and most emotional performances I've ever witnessed! Very cool

    They shouldn't have treated their drummer like that, no matter the problems. He gives a different energy to the band.

    • @Epitaph995
      @Epitaph995 9 лет назад +2

      +AvarayrOfficial could you please explain what really happened in a nutshell? :SS

    • @AvarayrOfficial
      @AvarayrOfficial 9 лет назад +15

      Epitaph They kicked him out of the band (which he was a founder of) without any discussions and have now stopped paying him loyalties from the merchandise (90% of which he designed). They also kicked him out of the Facebook page (which he designed and operated). Read more from Oli here: solstafirofficial.wordpress.com/

    • @Epitaph995
      @Epitaph995 9 лет назад +3

      +AvarayrOfficial thanks so much. this sounds so sick, why would they do something like that to him? especially when he was friends with the other founders...

    • @tomkristianson1547
      @tomkristianson1547 9 лет назад +1

      +AvarayrOfficial Aðalbjörn is also a founder of the band, so we can't say that they kicked out the founder of the band.

    • @AvarayrOfficial
      @AvarayrOfficial 9 лет назад +1

      Tom Kristianson I am aware of that. I never did say that he was the only founder. :)

    Summer -22 driving around Iceland chose not to see the band in their homeground @Lemmy as I had already experienced them before in Finland. Instead I went to see a just formed Icelandic afro band (!) just a few blocks away. Wasn´t bad but when I walked back past Lemmy the outro of this echoed through the streets of Reykjavik and left me gutted. So, you can´t always win can you :)

    Solstafir....stripped down like this reveals there best traits! Looked over due to their outcast, stepchild like differences from what people expect. KEXP always brings out the best in bands & individuals shine! Taking these guys out of the black metal crowed is what they need.......hope they are smart enough to see that!

    From Wikipedia : Before the beginning of the second leg of their European tour in January
    2015, the band posted a message on Facebook saying that Pálmason would
    not be joining them due to "personal reasons". Guðmundur replied
    immediately via the band's Twitter account, explaining that he'd been
    "stonewalled by ex-bandmates" and "thrown out of his life's work".
    In the beginning of June 2015, Guðmundur offered an explanation of the
    events that occurred 5 months prior. In an extensive statement, he
    revealed the details of his "forced" departure and condemned the actions
    of the rest of the band, in particular Aðalbjörn Tryggvason. (vocal, guitar)

    • @Asthfghl
      @Asthfghl 6 лет назад +1

      So basically, a typical scenario where a bunch of guys start doing the music they love, then some of them start believing too much in their own stardom, and decide to throw it all into the bin. And then behave like complete cunts about it whenever questioned about it (like we've seen on this comment section). Good for them.
