The review of the album in OMM was so pretentious.
Basically handing Sigur Ros responsibility for every aspect of Icelandic life, language and song...very over the top. But the album is gorgeous, I think it's my favourite of theirs.
OMM is rubbish
but I still have faith that this Sigur Ros album will be dead good

It was an outrageous review...I must have sat through about 300 words of absolute bilge before there was even any mention of the band whose album he was reviewing.
Typically majestic album, though...
I am very much looking forward to picking this up next monday
sounds lovely streaming but id like it blasting out of my speakers please!
I still can't understand a word of all alright tough!
tis good
Ultra poppy in parts
Song #7
Ára bátur is simply one of the most chilling songs I have ever heard. I know it’s easy, due to the apocalyptic ending, but everything that builds up to the ending is quite incredible as well.
does anything on
this really compare to the goodness of ágætis byrjun? yes i copied and pasted. i havent listened to them for ages because most of the stuff since that album has been weeeak
