Sigur Rós to release book
- Artists:
- Sigur Rós »
Icelandic post-rockers Sigur Rós are to follow up their acclaimed Takk... LP of 2005 with a book this summer. Not a record. A book. With pages and everything.
In A Frozen Sea: A Year With Sigur Rós is a neatly bound document - sure to be embellished with nice snaps - of the quartet's tour of their homeland in 2006.
A special box-set - including the book alongside vinyl pressings of the band's Takk..., ( ), Agaetis Byrjun and Smaskifa albums will be made available; it's limited to 5,000 copies and released on June 1.
Expect it to be expensive.

Almost a good enough reason to buy a record player
<sigh> if only i had room in my flat :(
They always complain about people describing them as "glacial"
so what do they do?
Release a book that will probably just be them driving around iceland, with lots of scenery.
Still, good band.
its the
single with three extra b-sides on it
Will the book...
be written in english?
