Arnalds, Olafur - And They Have Escaped the Weight of Darkness (Vinyl)

Olafur Arnalds - And They Have Escaped the Weight of Darkness (Vinyl)

Not many people make the leap from heavy metal drummer to leading neo-classical composer, but Iceland's Olafur Arnold's isn't just anyone. His 2010 album "... And They Have Escaped the Weight of Darkness" is a critically acclaimed hit composition inspired by the Bela Tarr film "The Werckmeister Harmonies." Harmony and melody play a big role in this composition that leans more heavily on acoustic instrumentation accentuated here and there by electronic instruments.
