New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Icelandic quintet Of Monsters and Men released today an Amazon Original Cover of Post Malone's "Circles." The track is available to stream and purchase only on Amazon Music.

"We recorded this version of Post Malone's 'Circles' in our studio in Iceland in February," the band stated. "We are fans of Post and love the song.
