Regarding the new album, SOLSTAFIR frontman Aðalbjörn Tryggvason comments: "This album sums together alot of things we've been wanting to do for years but never did. We finally brought in a string section, and we did our very own full blown melancholic Tiny Dancer piano ballad."

1.) Lágnætti
2.) Ótta
3.) Rismál
4.) Dagmál
5.) Miðdegi
6.) Nón
7.) Miðaftann
8.) Náttmál
