I'd done three solo albums in a row, and that's quite narcissistic.

I get highs, to be totally honest, in second-hand shops. My hunting instinct, I expect, really kicks in.

I've always appreciated working with people I have chemistry with, who are friends, and where you feel that the work is growing while you are getting to know each other better.

There is this stereotype of Icelanders all believing in spirits, and I've played up to that a bit in interviews.

Over the last 10 years, there have been so many incredible albums created in bedrooms by people who never would've gotten an album deal.

It wasn't just one journalist getting it wrong, everybody was getting it wrong.

I do believe sometimes discipline is very important. I'm not just lying around like a lazy cow all the time.
