What Are You Listening To Right Now?

Is anyone else into Of Monsters and Men? For the past few years I've had a lot of trouble getting into modern music, but this band really struck a chord. Great vocals, unique style and listening to them is actually a whole lot of fun. It's a weird change.

Yessir I got hooked by "My Head Is An Animal". I have a weak spot for Icelandic and Nordic music. Sigur Ros,  Eivor Palsdottir (Faroe Islands), The late Radka Toneff, Kari Bremnes.
 
I blame Jean Sibelus for starting me down that whole path

I listen to a lot of hard rock, metal, punk, alternative, etc. and I totally dig Of Monsters and Men. For me it bridges the 60's and 70's folk that I grew up with something that is very appealing. In fact, I like the recent trend of folksy rock/chamber rock or however one wishes to characterize it. The Maccabees, Lumineers, etc.
