Here is a short text about the band:

SUDDEN WEATHER CHANGE (IS, Kimi Records)

(Best New Artist on the Icelandic Music Awards 2010)

Sudden Weather Change are a alternative rock band from Iceland. Five artschool kids and childhood friends from Reykjavík got together started messing around with guitars. Their sound has been compared to the sound of bands like Sonic Youth, Pavement, Polvo and countless other 90′s alt-rock bands from the U.S. Stop! Handgrenade in the Name of Crib Death’nderstand? is their first full length album and contains 13 juicy, guitar heavy songs. The band has been together for 3 years and released a home-made EP in late 2007 by themselves, which sold out after a short, but successful tour in France. Sudden Weather Change have been glorified by the icelandic music press recently, who have hailed their crazy, loud and astounding live shows, with Morgunblaðið (Iceland’s oldest and most respected newspaper) naming them the most promising band of 2009, when predicting the year in music. In 2010 they where named the Best New Artist at the Icelandic Music Awards.

Reviews:

„one of the most refreshing new bands around.“ - Sean Adams, Drowned in Sound

„Sudden Weather Change recall the prime of Sunny Day Real Estate or Cap’n Jazz“ - Amy Phillips, Pitchfork.com

„Our favourite band at the Iceland Airwaves festival, Sudden’s youthful verve and fine taste for the bizarre (“Oh my God, I hate Nicholas Cage”) have kept us listening a month later.“ - Henry Barnes, guardian.co.uk

„Sudden Weather Change is the sound of warm lager being unceremoniously spilled all over the calculated preciousness of Sigur Ros’ “Hopelandic” gibberish with the power of an earthquake leveling the city of Reykjavík.“- Popmatters.com, 8/10
