Múm

Post-rock
Post-rock

Múm is a Post-rock act. Their sound grew out of Valgeir Sigurðsson, Hauschka and Hildur Guðnadóttir. Those roots explain a lot about how Múm arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Sigur Rós, Do Make Say Think, Eluvium, Ólafur Arnalds and Mono, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into The Middle East, The Album Leaf, The Magic Numbers, Animal Collective and Kylie Minogue, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 37 connections around Múm, reaching back through Valgeir Sigurðsson and forward to The Middle East.
