Af Stað --- 2013-05-31

Free download Official annotation with release: "It is a song that I wrote for Björk and Sigur Rós' concert, Náttúra, in August 2008, just before the economic collapse. The lyric is a twist on a famous Icelandic nationalistic song, 'Hver á Sér Fegra Föðurland', which means 'Who Has a Prettier Fatherland'. It describes how untouched and beautiful Iceland is, and how distant it is from the wars and ugliness of the world. My lyric is a plea that Icelandic people do not get drunk from their greed."
