Of Monsters and Men es una banda islandesa ganadora del Músiktilraunir (una competencia de bandas islandesas) el 2010. El nombre de la banda se ajusta a la letra de sus canciones, que en su mayoría cuentan la historia de todo tipo de monstruos y de humanos. La banda indie/folk se compone de 6 miembros, y se hicieron ampliamente conocidos gracias a que su canción "Little Talks" fue difundida por la radio KEXP, luego de grabarla en el festival Iceland Airwaves el 2011.

AmCDmAm Feel the ocean as it breathes, shivering teeth CDmAm See the mountains where they meet, smotherin me CDmAm As the wind fends off the waves, I count down the days CDm Heavy stones fear no weather
AmCDmAm I find comfort in the sound, and the shape of the heart CDmAm How it echoes through the chest from under the ground CDmAm As the hills turn into holes, I fill them with gold CDm Heavy stones fear no weather
[CHORUS]
Fmaj7AmG And from the rain comes a river running wild
That will create an empire for you Fmaj7AmG Illuminate, there's a river running wild that will create Fmaj7Am an empire for you G an empire for two Fmaj7Am an empire for you G an empire for two
[VERSE 3]
AmCDmAm And I paint your body black, I hide in your hair CDmAm And you're staring back at me like I wasn't there CDmAm As our bodies become stills, we welcome the fear CDm Heavy stones fear no weather
[CHORUS 2]
Fmaj7AmG And from the rain comes a river running wild
That will create an empire for you Fmaj7AmG Illuminate, there's a river running wild that will create Fmaj7Am an empire for you G an empire for two Fmaj7Am an empire for you G an empire for two
Fmaj7AmG And from the rain comes a river running wild
That will create an empire for you Fmaj7AmG Illuminate, there's a river running wild that will create Fmaj7Am an empire for you G an empire for two Fmaj7Am an empire for you G an empire for two Fmaj7AmG Whoa oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh Fmaj7AmG Oh whoa oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh DmFmaj7AmG Oh whoa oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh DmFmaj7G Oh whoa oh oh oh
