I'm stuck at work on a Sunday so instead of doing any actual work I'm going to round up a bunch of  videos I like, all from those weird ice covered countries. :)
(im not embedding as it will be a huge post then)

1. Royksopp - what else is there
It was really hard to find this as all youtube versions of it seem to be blocked to my country, no matter which country I said I lived in.
Amazing video and it features vocals by Karin Dreijer Andersson of The Knife (see below for more of  their stuff)

2.Sigur Ros - Saeglopur
3.Sigur Ros - Hoppipolla
4 Sigur Ros - Glósóli
Sigur Ros are one of my all time favorite bands, I am always amazed how much their music is used on tv.
Glósóli is probably my favorite of these 3 videos, but they are all really odd and good.

5. Familjen - Det snurrar i min skalle
I randomly found this,  apparently it won a Grammy award for Best video in Sweden!
Very cool video; cheesy upbeat song, creepy accordion player and people convulsing to the beat. What more could you ask for?

6. The Knife - Pass This On
7. The Knife - Marble House
Pass This On is an excellent track, Marble House has a really cute video.
