    After two semi-finals held earlier in February, it was time for Iceland’s national final for the Eurovision Song Contest, called “Söngvakeppnin”, to take place at Laugardalshöll venue in Reykjavik. It was won by industrial bdsm band Hatari and their song “Hatrið Mun Sigra” (Hate Will Prevail)”.

    Iceland’s choice for the grandiose international event consists of three art school friends, by name Klemens Hannigan, Matthías Tryggvi Haraldson and Einar Stéfansson. They started playing live in 2017 and have been chosen as the Best Live Band on Icelandic Airwaves. Now, they’ve got the chance to show what they can do in the first semi-final of the 64th Eurovision in Tel-Aviv on Tuesday the 14th of May.

The other countries are expected to reveal their acts in the forthcoming months.
