The Story of Iceland is an album by violinist and multi-instrumentalist Eyvind Kang, accompanied by a large ensemble that includes guitarist Bill Frisell. Far from jazz music, this album explores other genres within the avant-garde category. The best way to describe it would be to say it is experimental rock.
