Æla

... are a jagged, screaming punk band from Iceland, as seen at last year's Airwaves festival. After hearing their demo at an all-nite ATP chalet party we fell in love with their songs, and their friends, and their haircuts (the best evAr). They've sent us some new and unreleased stuff for the next Brainlove compilation.
