[@phoenixhart9189]

Iceland is full of amazing artists

[@christofyre]

Yes! Makes me want to move there, just to go watch all the bands.

[@alejandrocampollo]

[@LennWeltmeister]

[@mrtosajloterulio6898]

Thank you KEXP, thank you eternally for hosting great artists like Samaris :)

[@Chonkachella]

I've seen Samaris twice now. I so wish that they were still going. Such lovely people and such lovely music. One of my favourite bands.

[@strangerhertz5687]

Did they quit?

[@eog1234]

@@strangerhertz5687 yes 😔

[@speckgens]

Great band, by the way. Really cool sound, relaxing vibes. I'm enjoy it a lot! Thanks to Samaris and KEXP for this (k)experience. ^_^

[@jishmerlader]

Oh my God! Where have I been? People have said this many times & I have to agree, Icelandic music is insane. GusGus, Vok & now I have just found my hat trick band Samaris. What an incredible band, vocals are majestic, beat is deep & tempo is pacey. I’m sold!!

[@Greenalex89]

Saturday morning, didnt sleep well..Got my coffee..Samaris brings me the balance I need now.. Its nice to see how they matured and how much more easygoing they are on the stage.

[@phoenixhart9189]

Beautiful

[@MrSeamusHayes]

Ever since KEXP uploaded that first Samaris concert, I've been a big fan. Awesome!

[@rvufo]

Seamus I'm not complaining, but I wonder why they're featured so much on KEXP!? can't get enough of their hypnotic music

[@nsjx]

first off i really love the programmed break/beat work on this album. it gives it a nice laid-back rolling vibe and creates a fine gel between each track. the fact that the lyrics are in a different language don't even enter my mind. all of the fragility and softness and razor quality of the lead vocal is still there. the lead vocalist understands how to use her voice and positioning to create a dynamic performance. big fan of her dreamy presence on stage... they each have a now characteristic way that feels like Samaris in live mode. AND i really LOVE the lyrics themselves. the words and the way the poetry works with the music is very well done. so i have the disc on order since learning about the "new" album (a little late). can't wait to drive to work in the early morning with this one. to Samaris: never loose the reason you do what you do and all the rest will fall into place. do not listen to any of the negative air out there and keep doing whatever it is you will do. thanks for another nice experience here, both KEXP and Samaris. keep going Samaris... life is difficult as time unfolds...but keep THIS going.

[@benjaminwalkenhorst9670]

This is otherworldly. I was practically hypnotized within seconds and could not stop watching the video. Wow, I've never heard of Samaris before, but they are great!

[@FrankGreiner]

Bravo. Vues, écoutées et appréciées il y a quelques mois lors de leur passage à Paris. C'est toujours un plaisir d'entendre ces voix extraordinaires sur fond de percussions savamment ciselées.

[@sofiat338]

stunning, I burst into tears, thank you, i needed to cry

[@Datura63]

this just this everything omg its so good. i love you Samaris. I love you Iceland.

[@biancabcp_398]

Brasil 🇧🇷! Essa banda é absolutamente maravilhosa! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@forestfloor2259]

I listen to this and other Samaris regularly. Cheers from Canada Bianca

[@TransparentBarriers]

Dat iz gold

[@thebeardeddove]

Jófríður is my favirote vocalist. Saw Samaris when they supported Alt-J in Reykjavik, loved them ever since.

[@carlossantana7763]

Amazingmind blowing!

[@arande3]

I was just looking at 1920s movies. It's like stepping into a time warp to watch this after that.

[@osvaldoalarcon5264]

Thank you very much KEXP for show us this music. The life if amazing with these musical discovery

[@sofiat338]

Iceland is a special, healing place

[@heedmedia]

Really! ... I'm going there. 2 months time..

[@ДмитрийГаркушин-э7п]

I like Samaris so much. Thanks for your amazing music!

[@Thyagohills]

Please, come to Brazil!

[@Professor4ik]

Gosh, how much I adore you guys, i mean really, you one of my favorite band, hope that someday you'll visit Saint-P

[@mauriciomena3506]

God, thanks so much KEXP, I've been waiting for the live version since blacks lights was released, they are so magical, hypnotizing. I hope one day they come to my country.

[@jeros1923]

This cc guy is amazing.

[@phoenixhart9189]

I litterally just like to smoke and simply zone out and feel good. Beautiful

[@bruceaisher]

Thank you KEXP for helping me to discover this amazing band. Perfect combination of amazing voice and beats.

[@taffyjones281]

Beautiful sound - just discovered them on KZbin!

[@magdalenaradomska9588]

beautiful music

[@magdalenaradomska9588]

i listen again and again :)

[@magdalenaradomska9588]

wonderful songs

[@kolinevans9127]

This album is wow.

[@elfenzoom]

all is so amazing!

[@dalechalfont112]

I just ordered their latest cd, it cost me $37 as an import, I rang a chain store here in AUS and they treated me like a weirdo for asking if they stocked something that wasn't in their system, in other words, if they don't have it; it must be garbage. So I'll gladly pay my $37 to get this great music, I'm just glad they actually have an album out, so many bands put out mp3 only.

[@NBHfilm]

I'm from AUS too. I recently found them through KZbin. Their still a niche band, so I doubt anyone would have their CD's in-stock. I just downloaded on itunes.

[@falscherbruce5522]

I had a look in JB Blowfly: they stocked big names like Sugarcubes, Sigur Rós, and surprisingly Mammút and Sólstafir

[@HousePlant_Ambient]

Icelandic artist are just inspiring me so much now a days with my music.

[@forestfloor2259]

Definitely one of the best on kexp

[@C4RTI]

When Something is awesome, you say "wow" we say "La Creta!" So... La Creta! I'm loving this!

[@manualvarado2212]

Hahahaha, do you mean La cresta?

[@dirkjohns2560]

Sie ist so wunderschön.

[@mortimus665]

Amazing stuff. Iceland seems to be a nest of pure awesomness. Gus Gus, Samaris, Ayia..I just can't stop listen to their music. Big shout out to KEXP for hosting such amazing bands. Thank You! Cheers from Poland!

[@miguel1818J1]

9:47 "We're gonna get going.. There's no relaxing." but im more relaxed while listening to their music than when im not.. haha idk but their music is kindof meditative for me

[@melliewalks]

[@dalekay9ine]

Let's not forget who put numbers in their song titles first, 20+ years ago. The legends that never got to be due to a tragic accident. Dayton. Ohio's own 3RA1N1AC!!!!

[@hanslidenbrock7266]

Tan linda ella

[@sv3nhq847]

[@ang3l1k]

me gustaa mucho el sonidooooo y cuandooo le escuche penseee no quiero ofenderr penseee que era bjork. saludosss #ElSlvador

[@cromatic3606]

lo mismo pense desde que inicio y más con su voz de la vocalista y el eco en sus tonos, pero quiero permitirme a escuchar más de este grupo para ver que más tienen y poder hacer un buen comentario :)

[@manualvarado2212]

Great! There's a downtempo duo in my country (Venezuela), and they are really cool. They are called Masseratti 2lts. I don't know why downtempo musicians like to use numbers in the titles but, they have lot of it as well!

[@gosian7657]

Love it💣

[@Lorena.deluiz]

This is beyond genius

[@dvoicemusic]

IT BOMB!

[@KirrLavroff]

aww the way jfdr introduced the band before ravers was really sweet

[@arnulfofd]

MULTIPLE LIKES!!!

[@ponponyift]

KEXP when are you releasing Gangly performance?? :( i have been waiting very patiently for all Jófríõur performances from the Iceland airwaves.

[@kreofun3246]

18:20 naah that's so amazing

[@rayaguilarjr]

Lead singer reminds of Amy Adams. Cool music.

[@bruceaisher]

She is better looking than Amy Adams

[@SharonDee333]

❤

[@aguilacosmica13]

dubwise!

[@jackroark6928]

holy fucking shit I just stumbled upon this! this is amazing!

[@KnutKniffte]

Never heard of Samaris before. Nice music. Do you know Low Roar? They will release a new album in april. Could you invite them? :)

[@Bensonisfantastic]

Low Roar have recorded 3 sessions for KEXP

[@KnutKniffte]

Really? Link please :)

[@Bensonisfantastic]

I don't know if the first one was ever published bu they recorded 3.

[@soldlakemusic3446]

Jofridur actually has a feat on Low roar's last albulm (in the song Bones)

[@wawazuzzy2064]

get it while you can

[@GoSardinia]

what happened to these guys? would love this on vinyl... just wanted to say x

[@ramirojimenez8234]

ÁSLAAAAUUUUG !!

[@danielescutia5871]

this is fucking dope!!!

[@yasha12isreal]

came here for Wanted 2 Say

[@Faddablack]

I prefer last years KEXP live performance of "wanted to say" to the one on this. That being said, still a great performance nonetheless.

[@ctimur]

nice one. could be nicer if there was sth different than clarinet in some songs.

[@ricardodanielsanchezquirog5306]

la claeinetista no toca lo demás genial

[@SharigramaOfficial]

[@Kristina5kova]

[@m0psssss]

've made my music year*/+:- %

[@cesarmr111]

I feel Black Lights album does not have enough dreamy clarinet as their previous works

[@anotherdonkey]

Great as always, but I'd love to know why they're now choosing to write lyrics in English

[@scottsterling6704]

Twigsen Berries do you know who speaks icelandic? Didnt think so lol

[@manualvarado2212]

They used to sing in icelandic? So cool!

[@halt.halt.halt.]

Scott Sterling I guess you forgot the word someone there? Even if there aren’t many people speaking Icelandic it still is one of the most beautiful languages in the world, at least in my opinion. Apart from that - this music works very well without understanding the lyrics. Look at Sigur Rós. They wrote one song with English lyrics but are insanely popular nonetheless.

[@tommythetrain1945]

purdy

[@mattyp3400]

that is one long song

[@RIm-gu3jt]

Are those tracks all recorded in advance? What is the guy doing using his laptops?

[@def0rm0]

R. Im most electronic music has some prerecorded sounds. No one can play that many things at once themselves. I'm sure some parts are live bc I noticed a difference from the album
