" Electro-pop quartet Sykur have yet to make significant waves in the UK, but in their home country of Iceland they&amp;#039;ve been big-hitters since 2009.  Originally an all-male trio, the group recently added singer Agnes, who is described as having the &amp;quot;sneering attitude&amp;quot; of Courtney Love mixed with the &amp;quot;disco fabulousness&amp;quot; of Donna Summer. They released their latest EP &amp;#039;Mesopotamia&amp;#039; over here on the quiet in April and are hoping to take things up a notch with new single &amp;#039;Curling&amp;#039;, a thumping synth-pop number that will be put out alongside a heap of remixes on August 26.  Ahead of its release, the band have debuted a previously unheard song &amp;#039;Shed Those Tears&amp;#039;, a summery slice of effortless disco-funk that doffs its cap to Daft Punk and Giorgio Moroder. Listen to the track below:   Sykur&amp;#039;s current run of UK shows continues at London&amp;#039;s Hoxton Square Bar &amp;amp; Kitchen on July 31 and wraps up at Bath&amp;#039;s Moles.
