Officially a co-headline with Icelandic post-metal group Sólstafir, it’s encouraging to see such a busy venue on a cold, Monday night in the middle of a Glasgow winter. Sólstafir themselves enjoy a rapturous set, an already packed crowd reacting to frontman Aðalbjörn Tryggvason’s messianic interraction.

A very special concert awaited the approximately 1,000 visitors of the Christuskirche in Bochum on this Thursday evening.

There’s something slightly studied about Myrkur, who has an electric fan carefully aimed to keep her hair billowing dramatically while she sings.
