They were an immediate hit with their beautiful lyrics sung by Nanna Hilmarsdottir and the rest of the band backing her up with your not so typical instruments. They do not use electronic instruments for the most part. Just a couple of acoustic guitars, a trumpet, and loud varying percussion. It all comes together in the beautiful debut album My Head is an Animal. It was an international hit from Australia to the United States. The song "Little Talks" was in the Top 10 music charts in Europe, Ireland, Iceland, and the United States. The songs are beautiful and yet poppy in the sense. The album can also make you want to sit down and just appreciate the world. The album is a great LP to listen to in the later evenings perhaps in your backyard having a nice cold drink. Of Monsters and Men have a new album coming out Beneath the Skin coming out June 9th on Universal
