''Iður til Fóta'' was a single released in 1981 by the Icelandic group Þeyr through Eskvímó and it was edited in 10" format. The title translates as "Moving Your Feet" but in Icelandic also forms a pun which can equally translate as "Guts at Your Feet". This record was never reissued since the masters are believed to be lost. However, in 2001 some of its recordings appeared in ''Mjötviður til Fóta'', a CD to commemorate the 20th anniversary of the creation of Þeyr. The title of this CD also combined the name of ''Mjötviður Mær'' (1981), the other album included. ==The front and back covers== The front cover, which was designed by Hilmar Örn Hilmarsson, depicts a dancer being hypnoptized by a man who points at her and shows a geometric shape on her head. This illustration was intended to represent the ''hypnotizing effect'' of Þeyr's music towards the audience. The back cover depicts a German inscription, here translated: ''The fall of Asgard on Atlantis.'' ''The Ragnarök of the Edda and "the thousand-year empire of God on Earth" according to Daniel, Ezekiel and John's Book of Revelation.'' This text is followed by two quotations from the Bible written in Latin: ''Væ væ væ habitantibus in terra. ''Apocalypsis VIII'' ''Cuncta in quibus spiraculum vitæ est mortua sunt. ''Genesis VII'' Where the first quotation refers to The Seventh Seal and means ''Woe! Woe! Woe to the inhabitants of the earth'' ((Apocalypsis 8:13 )). The second quotation refers to The Flood and translates as follows: ''Everything on dry land that had the breath of life in its nostrils died.'' ((Genesis 7:22 )) These writings are complemented by an illustration of the ''Beinhaus'' (''House of Bones'') taken from a series of drawings of the ''Totentanz'' (''Dance of Death''). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Iður til Fóta」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
