Kælan Mikla : Næturblóm (Live)

Meðlimir Kælunnar miklu kynntust í framhaldsskóla en hljómsveitin varð til fyrir hálfgerða tilviljun í ljóðakeppni fyrir sex árum. Þær leika ískalt rafpopp og eru stundum skilgreindar sem Dark Wave eða óttabylgja. Þær njóta vaxandi athygli erlendis og hafa leikið á stórum tónleikum og tónlistarhátíðum víða um Evrópu. Í því ljósi virðast markmið þeirra kannski öfugsnúin því næsta skref, um leið og ný plata kemur út í nóvember, er að ná í meiri mæli eyrum Íslendinga.
Kælan mikla was born almost by accident, at a poetry slam contest in school six years ago. They play freezing cold Dark Wave and have been reaching a growing audience outside Iceland, touring and playing festivals around Europe. It might seem odd but their next goal, following a new album release in November, is to reach the ears of more of their fellow Icelanders.

Para todo el público hispanohablante que desee percibir esta canción en resonancia a nuestra lengua, he aquí una interpretación:
[[[Flores nocturnas]]]
La noche nos sienta mejor
Despertamos cuando el sol cae en sopor
Cuando el solsticio de invierno es más oscuro
Las flores nocturnas brillan sin pudor alguno
Y ellas brillan aunque no las hallemos aquí
Porque ellas mismas se arrancaron desde la raíz
Y ahora ellas se yerguen en sus plantas
Y florecen en la dama que a mi lado danza
[Nota: No es una traducción literal-literal, procuré darle algo de rima sin perder del todo el contexto y sentido original]

The lyrics are amazing, I just found this on Bandcamp:
Nightflowers
The night suits us best
We wake up when the sun goes down
When midwinter is at its darkest
The nightflowers shine the brightest
And they do it although we won’t find them here
Because they ripped themselves up by the roots
And now they’re standing on two feet
And bloom in the lady that’s dancing next to me

I’m not trying to be a dick- really- but why do we need a new name for this? “Dark wave”, “cold wave”, this sounds essentially like mid 80’s to mid 90’s goth music.

Hi people, this band is from Iceland. Follow the letter:
''Nóttin klæðir okkur best
Við vöknum þegar sólin sest
Þegar skammdegið er svartast
Skína næturblómin bjartast
Og þau gera það þótt við finnum þau ekki hér
Því þau rifnuðu upp með rótum og standa núna á tveimur fótum
Og blómstra í dömunni sem dansar við hliðiná mér''

What an incredible band, I love their recent stuff as much as the early tracks and everything in between. All three of them are exceptionally talented, love the bass lines, drum and electronic beats, keyboards, and the vocals finish their sound off perfectly. Just shows what you can do with pure, natural talent, no guitar needed or missed! If John Peel was alive they would have already recorded several sessions with him.
