Transcription

Production

Múm worked on Finally We Are No One in Galtarviti, a lighthouse in the Westfjords.[7][8][9] Inside the lighthouse, the band composed songs for the album, which they subsequently recorded in a studio.[8] Explaining why they decided to work in Galtarviti, Múm member Gunnar Örn Tynes said:

We went there and we really liked the place... We were connected to it. You get a different sense of time being there... It's far away from everything. There's no electricity except for a power generator, and there's no phone connection, there's no TV, there's no radio, and you have to work for everything you want to get.[7]

Hot Press critic James Kelleher described Finally We Are No One as "a luscious 56-minute lullaby for troubled heads, sung quietly and played with delicate precision."[16] Q found the album "utterly unique" and highlighted Múm's "curious combination of bright-eyed playfulness and maudlin moods",[14] while in Rolling Stone, Jon Caramanica commented that the band "find majestic sounds in unlikely places."[15] Cam Lindsay of Exclaim! wrote, "Glitches, moody organs and slow, heavy beats are thrown all over the place, mixed in with some of the most magical sounds, which seem as though they are covered in pixie dust."[17] Pitchfork's Mark Richardson said that a few songs "grate with their simple-minded sweetness", but "a handful of others are excellent."[13]

In 2016, Paste ranked Finally We Are No One at number 11 on its list of the 50 best post-rock albums.[2]
