“I experienced a number of things at Norðanpaunk that I never expected would happen at any festival, or much less any place, ever. I mean, have you ever witnessed a group of people drinking in a hot tub loudly imitating Silencer vocals only to hear the campsite across the lawn respond by shouting their own imitation of Silencer vocals? No, you haven’t. You definitely haven’t. But at Norðanpaunk, that kind of unexpected was simply the norm.”
