Nationalist Songs About Iceland The Liberation of Zion
Rocksteady meets the Northern Lights. On this album, The Liberation of Zion crowns Iceland the true promised land, where Zion needs no palm tree, just a glacier and a geyser. Hammond organs swirl like aurora and basslines rumble like basalt. Nine psychedelic anthems take Babylon to task, from the world’s oldest parliament to the Cod War face-off with the gunboats. Along the way you’ll meet skalds, settlers, hidden folk, a very patient volcano, and the pun that Iceland was really an “I-land” all along. Fiercely patriotic, relentlessly witty, and irie to the bone. Fire and ice have never sounded so righteous.
