Quirky experimental electro seven-piece Múm just got done playing Reykjavik's biggest music event, the Iceland Airwaves Festival. Check out some pics of the band via Pitchfork's coverage (scroll down; they're right between Bonde do Rolê and Ra Ra Riot). In honor of their latest album Go Go Smear the Poison Ivy, tomorrow night they kick off their world tour in L.A. and they'll go nonstop for the next month and a half, finally bringing things to completion in Scotland on December 14th. That's a whole lotta fiddlin'.
