Artist History
Sofandi is an icelandic word meaning "asleep". Sofandi was formed in the summer of 1997 by two members of a band called "substandard suffics" (Bjarni and Markus) and a drummer named Kristjan. Remained mostly unknown for 3 years, exept for a few gigs in bars and parties, but then in november 2000 decided to finally make a record. The record was named "anguma" and was released early february 2001 in Iceland. It has had great and terrible reviews. Later the same year our second album was released. We called it "Ugly Demos". It has only had great reviews. It was released by the label TMT (sublabel of Thule music) |
