Being a offbeat coed nine-piece from Reykjavik, Iceland, Gus Gus was about bound to inspire comparisons to the Sugarcubes, though the onset of ten-spot long time caused the grouping to inherit the influences of electronic fuzz and trip-hop rhythms rather than the tear of post-punk insaneness that divine the Sugarcubes during the late '80s. Begun as a movie theatre headache in early 1995 by filmmakers Stefán Árni and Siggi Kjartansson, the group was gradually expanded to include musicians such as DJ Herb Legowitz and programmer Biggi Thórarinsson as well as singer/songwriters Daníel Ágúst, Hafdís Huld, and Magnús Jónsson (former actors all), a cameraman (Steph), and a producer (Baldur Stefánsson). The band's decidedly indie sensibilities light-emitting diode to their signing by 4AD after a four-part series of terpsichore mix in EPs during 1996. Among a handful of groups in the late '90s with access to both closely knit dance circles as well as the notoriously highly strung indie community, the group gained support from LFO (with Mark Bell's remix of "Believe") and i of London's about far-famed DJ stores, Fat Cat Records, while playacting their first day of the month in England. Given a combined U.S./U.K. loss due to 4AD's agreement with Warner Bros., their debut album, Polydistortion, hit the stores in April 1997. This Is Normal followed in 1999, and one year by and by the anthology release Gus Gus vs. T-World appeared. 2002 power saw the release of Care; Motley Live appeared a year later. The group returned with new material in 2007 with Forever and a day.
