As you may or may not know, last October my girlfriend Kia and I took a short trip to Iceland, and one of the main things we did while we were there was buy a shitload of vinyl. This April, just in time for Record Store Day, I’m finally getting off my ass and editing together the footage. First up: Reykjavík Record Shop, a lovely little place on Klapparstígur where we spent entirely too much money. Check out the video for discussion of records by Queen, Peter Gabriel, Ol’ Dirty Bastard, the Fat Boys, Parliament, and Colonel Abrams. Camera by me and Kia Matthews (who also makes a special appearance!), music by Iceland’s own Icecross.
