Award-winning anti-capitalist techno-dystopian performance art collective Hatari made headlines for its participation and active politicisation of the 2019 Eurovision song contest.  Their official aim is to take the lid off the relentless unfolding scam that is everyday life using a variety of platforms, most notably the music industry. We cannot change things but we can unveil the anomie of neoliberal society, the pointlessness of every minute spent in the futile race, and the low price for which man now sells himself ever more blatantly.

​

Hatari won performer of the year at the Icelandic Music Awards and are three time winners of 'live act of the year' at the Reykjavik Grapevine Music Awards. The group also won the prestigious Iceland Music News Music Video of the Year Award shortly after founding prestigious media news outlet Iceland Music News. 

The group was founded in Reykjavík, Iceland, in 2015 by Klemens Hannigan, Matthías Tryggvi Haraldsson, and masked drummer Einar Hrafn Stefánsson. In 2020, they released their first LP-album, Neyslutrans (consumption trance). They are the subject of feuture length documentary A Song Called Hate.
