The sound of the Icelandic group Múm was largely determined by the singing of the sisters Gyda and Kristín Anna Valtysdóttir. With their high, childlike voices they gave the music a dreamy element, which became increasingly important in music. However, they can no longer be heard on the fourth Múm album Go Go Smear The Poison Ivy: after Gyda had quit the band earlier, Kristín Anna also left
… the group at the end of 2006. This makes Go Go Smear The Poisin Ivy clearly different. A lot less sweet (fortunately), but still just as experimental, with a particularly high 'bleep and beep' content. There is still singing (now also by a man), but the voices are less in the foreground this time. This makes it possible to listen more attentively to the imaginative and rich production, which is again very atmospheric.more
