British music mag and website Clash Magazine features the English version of Salt by Icelandic band Mammút as "Track of the Day." Mammút, who have been signed by Bella Union, are described as having a visual quality to their music.
"Ready for the wider world, Mammút are set to release 'Salt' through Bella Union shortly. It's an intense offering, the chugging bass recalling the spasm of Public Image Limited, say, while the vocals recall early Bjork."
Mammút's lyrics have until now, always been in Icelandic. Below you'll find both the English and Icelandic versions of "Salt".
