Review: On Sing Along to Songs You Don't Know, Iceland's Múm have largely abandoned their IDM/electronica roots in favor of a more sophisticated and organic (but still highly percusive) sound. Synth beats have been largely (but not entirely) replaced by a string quartet, prepared piano, marimba, and hammered dulcimer -- and all accompanied by some very capable song writing. The breathy and intimate vocals are a definite stand-out.
