For a Minor Reflection

Starting life as a hard rock duo in a tiny garage inReykjavík, For a Minor Reflection (FaMR) morphed into an indie rock trio, for aweek or so, then a blues quartet, for a little longer, before finally arrivingat their current incarnation - instrumental post-rockers du jour.In 2007 they released debut album Reistu tig vie, sóliner komin á loft… (Rise, the sun’s up…). Recorded within one weekend and featuring only six songs, this record earned them a slew of accolades, including favourable comparisons to Explosions in the Sky, Caspain and GodspeedYou! Black Emperor. Fellow Icelanders Sigur Rós even went on to describe them asthe 'band with the potential to out do Mogwai'.Head to Yugong Yishan to check out what the fuss is all about.
