Sigur Ros Dates & Album information

Icy gods Sigur Ros unveil new material over the coming week with three UK dates. The band whose third studio album is tentatively slated for September have thusly only played two tracks from the new record, 'Gong' and 'Mílanó' headline their own Somerset House show as well as two regional dates. A single is also penned for August

July
8 Glasgow Academy
9 Manchester Lowry Theatre
10 London Somerset House

As an aside, the new album is said to sound like Korn, which by all accounts could be extremely interesting.

Sigur Ros Dates & Album information

I thought they already did sound like Korn?
or is it just me?

Re: Sigur Ros Dates & Album information

Certainly just you. Cant wait for the album or the gig at Somerset house.

Sigur Ros Dates & Album information

korn?

does that mean that they will turn to christianity very soon?

Re: Sigur Ros Dates & Album information

I chose tickets to see the Mars Volta over Sigur Ros and QOTSA at Somerset House.
Oh, how that plan backfired now as it's the only gig to be cancelled.

Sigur Ros Dates & Album information

Whooop!
Sunday Sunday Sunday...

Re: Sigur Ros Dates & Album information

beth orten was cancelled aswel HUMPH

but still bright eyes

Sigur Ros Dates & Album information

I don't have a ticket since I too made the mistake of choosing The Mars Volta over Sigur Ros (WHY? I'VE SEEN TMV A WHOLE BUNCH OF TIMES?) so if anyone has a spare one it would be MUCH appreciated - bar that I'm going to try and get one off a tout.

Hope it's better than the last album : it was really boring !

Before popping out for a pee pee.

Re: Sigur Ros Dates & Album information

Yes it was.
The first two were so much better...

Re: Sigur Ros Dates & Album information

Sigur Ros Dates & Album information

Re: Sigur Ros Dates & Album information

Me three! We're having a picnic for Al YMSS' birthday. Is gonna sweet.
I nearly cried last time i saw sigur ros. true story.

Re: Sigur Ros Dates & Album information

I'll be in Scotland, so you can all fuck off and weep at freaking Sigur.

I hate you all. Especially Mike & Jigga. Man you make me sick.

God, I'm jealous. I want to go.

Re: Sigur Ros Dates & Album information

I'll bring CAKE.

Re: Sigur Ros Dates & Album information

I thought that was a joke.... ?

Re: Sigur Ros Dates & Album information

It was in a press release and reported elsewhere.

Sigur Ros Dates & Album information

This Sunday? Oh boy, I cannot fucking wait for this. I will most likely cry since 'Vaka' has been known to reduce me to tears.

Sigur Ros Dates & Album information

im going to the paris date. cannot wait, its gonna be awesome!!

Sigur Ros Dates & Album information

"does that mean that they will turn to christianity very soon?"

At least one of them is a Christian!

Sigur Ros Dates & Album information

yeh and Jonsi is a fag. jus hope one of em aint catholic.

Sigur Ros Dates & Album information

this has been upsetting me for months... they're playing glasgow but i'll be in a big field getting trashed before a whole weekend of lovely bands.

dilemma: arrive early at titip, getting guttered before sunset by consuming a weekends supply of 'whatever' or go see sigur ros, have the aural equivalent of a big bag of 'whatever', but risk being late for festival......?

Re: Sigur Ros Dates & Album information

i can't work out if that's a very bad joke or not.... i think the easiest reply is probably 'and your point is...?'

Re: Sigur Ros Dates & Album information

shurrupayourface!

Sigur Ros Dates & Album information

Sigur Ros. Do it. You know in the long run you'll look back at it and think that you made the right choice instead of watching loads of bands you probably think are wank.

Sigur Ros Dates & Album information

as their music sounds like heaven, i'd assume some of them were christians. jesus is a sigur fan. fact.

Sigur Ros Dates & Album information

Yay! Can't wait till Sunday!!

Re: Sigur Ros Dates & Album information

Im going to see Sigur Ros at the Academy and then head up to the campsite straight after as my mate is driving me.

Sigur Ros Dates & Album information

Hooray I'm going to this now. Anyone heard anything about support acts? my friend said jenniferever might be a possibility but that may have been just wishful thinking

Sigur Ros Dates & Album information

They're still on, are they?

Re: Sigur Ros Dates & Album information

'amina' are the support act for sigur ros. they're also their backing band. four lovely girls doing cool electronics and strings.
got to see them at adem's homefires festival, and loved them. made me regret not buying sigur ros tickets, as they were sold out after that. amina made me think that the sigur ros gig would be value for money, but twas too late.

Sigur Ros Dates & Album information

Just in after the Glasgow show. Very good but mobbed. If you've got tickets for any of the shows get there early.

Re: Sigur Ros Dates & Album information

Yeah it was brilliant, possibly the best gig i've ever been at and probably the warmest.

Sigur Ros Dates & Album information

Hehheh, it was a bit hot. Most flyers being used as fans I've ever seen.

Re: Sigur Ros Dates & Album information

well i thought as people were judging bands on their religion why not on there sexuality? yes it was a bad joke

Re: Sigur Ros Dates & Album information

Jeniferever aren't playing, their in the studio recording their debut release for Drowned in Sound Recordings, due January '06.

Re: Sigur Ros Dates & Album information

Almost as if it had been intended to be used as fans. Best gig ever, hottest gig ever.

Sigur Ros Dates & Album information

The sound was really good, the visuals excellent, including when the computer conked out and we had the Apple error message projected, twice.
