FM Belfast Debut Brand New Video for "Vertigo" Off Sophomore Album, Don't Want To Sleep



"Gloriously kitschy, Commodore-64-style digipop, sung in gleefully off-kilter accented English. Kind of like a low-fi version of Röyksopp." - SPIN  

"Sure to spice up any party, catching an FM Belfast live show is sure to spice up your entire life." - ZINK    

"[fun] is just the goal" - Stereogum    

Watch the video for "Vertigo" at the  Prefix premiere or Vimeo


Icelandic fun-pop group FM Belfast have debuted a new video for "Vertigo," taken from Don't Want To Sleep, the followup to their breakout debut, How to Make Friends on Morr Music. Directed by Máni M. Sigfússon,  the video "centers on a play date held by two little girls, who are terribly cute and seem to know exactly what to do when it comes to properly enjoying the music of "Vertigo," says Prefix.

Performing all over Europe this summer, the band made several festival appearances in
Austria, Slovakia, Spain, France, Denmark and more, and will soon embark on another set of European dates. One of MTV's "International Bands To Watch" at  SXSW '11FM Belfast have perfected the art of engaging audiences around the world. Having as many as 25 people on stage with them at a time, one can expect brightly colored decorations, special effects, and a whole lot of energy at their live shows.
Watch FM Belfast perform "Underwear" live from Àrni Sveinsson's film "Backyard"
