Second album from Orlygur Thor Orlygsson almost exactly a year on from his self-titled debut-an album that garnered rapturous praise in certain quarters. Whereas his debut was effectively instrumental aside from occasional understated background vocals the Blue Sound heralds a massive progression for Olvis; six of the eleven tracks here feature Orlygur singing in Icelandic layered over epic lush orchestration to stunning effect. Intriguingly the album also features SIGUR ROS drumm.
