Þeyr (also known as Theyr) was an Icelandic New Wave band from the early eighties.

The group contained two future Kukl / The Sugarcubes members. After releasing their first album "Þagað í Hel", which was influenced by dance music, the group underwent a change and discovered the new wave.

Their music never has been re-released as the masters are believed to be lost. However in 2001 a compilation called "Mjötviður til Fóta" was released. It contains songs recovered from the album "Mjötviður Mær" and the single "Iður til Fóta", two records released in 1981. Thus, the only recorded material of the band currently available is this release, as well as some Icelandic compilations which feature a few tracks.
