Sigur Rós

[tristy]

If you're into this extremely good Icelandic band, their new album, "Takk", has leaked onto the internet.

I'm getting it as we speak. I heard it's better than "( )".

Thanks for the info.

I go download.

Never really heard much by them. Heard a few songs off () (He only one I remember is the video where the kids are all wearing gas masks) so i'll definately check this out. I think it's the same band...hmmm let me ponder this for a moment.

Fancy getting a track listing up if possible?

I like me some Sigur Ros.

[Guest Bas]

I've never actually heard them, what do they sound like?

[Steeb]

Ambient. Proggy? It's hard to describe them. They play their guitars with violin bows, and sing in Icelandic (I think?). If that helps.

[tristy]

Jónsi, the lead singer, also sings in a fictious language called, "hopelandic".

They're quiet. Spacey. Really good stuff to go to sleep too. It's not hard or dark or anything. Just really calm, peaceful music.
