Happy Valtari day music fans...

You know what's happening right? At 7pm in each country around the world you'll be able to hear the new Sigur Ros album Valtari for one-hour-only. This hour will be known forevermore as the Valtari Hour.

DiS is one of the official UK partners streaming the album in its entirety, so bookmark this page or leave it open in a tab, and wander back here to listen to the record later (or now, if it is 7pm UK Time when you load up this page). Obviously, if you're a time traveller and have been forward to 7pm tonight, please comment below telling us what we can expect...

If you missed it, read Dom Gourlay's chat with Jonsi about their new album, right here.

Sigur Rós

I wouldn't bother.

It's not very good, in my opinion. Very disappointed.

So far...

...it sounds absolutely beautiful. Understated and subtle. More soundscape than rock band.

Just stunning...

Some real beautiful pieces of music on the new album.

i thought it was

a bit background-y. there's better ambient music around, but will give it another go.

I will give it another go, too.

First listen I didn't think it was good enough for a corporate elevator.
