My Head Is an Animal

This 2012 vinyl LP comes from the Icelandic band Of Monsters and Men, led by singer/guitarist Nanna Bryndis Hilmarsdottir. In just one year, they quickly rose to fame. Nanna started as the acoustic act Songbird and then added more musicians for a solo show. She loved how her vocals blended with guitarist/vocalist Ragnar 'Raggi' Porhallsson's, so they began writing songs together and formed Of Monsters and Men in 2010. Winning 2010's Mesiktilraunir, they got a spot at the influential Iceland Airwaves festival. Seattle's radio station KEXP shared 'Little Talks', creating a ripple effect. Their music is both beautiful and fantastical, with a unique appeal that keeps growing.

To enjoy this vinyl LP, simply place it on a turntable and use the tonearm to drop the needle gently onto the groove. Make sure your turntable is clean and in good working condition. When not in use, store the vinyl in its sleeve and keep it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Avoid touching the playing surface with your fingers to prevent dirt and oils from affecting the sound. If the vinyl gets dirty, you can use a record cleaning brush to gently remove dust. That's it - just sit back and enjoy the wonderful music of Of Monsters and Men.
