CYBER

Formed in 2012 as a thrash-metal/disco concept, CYBER is now known as the ongoing experimental electronic, genre-bending project of Salka Valsdóttir and Joe. The band was named after a lipstick that both found themselves rocking when they became best friends at sixteen. Having toured all around Europe with the renowned boyband HATARI and opened for the likes of Sevdaliza and Migos, CYBER has now established themselves as a leading force of fun and experimental live performances. For their recent album ‘VACATION’ CYBER won the Icelandic Music Awards for best hip-hop/rap album of the year 2020. CYBER released their album SAD :’( in October 2024, a long anticipated record that’s centered around teenage angst.

"Live, CYBER have an incredible sense of the theatrical – leather and latex reveal a lot of their interest in power dynamics and cultural taboos – but with their machine-gun verses, they’re incredibly talented rappers at their core."

“They like playing around with language, too, creating their own absurd, but evocative lyric world somewhere between Icelandic and English, in which smoking cheese and getting naughty are perfectly mutual activities."”
