Seriously, no ones picking up on Sigur Ros anymore? :bonk: This new album sounds great! This closer to the album sounds as relaxing and cathartic as an instrumental can get!

Wow! I just saw there's a video posted for my second favorite track, Fjögur píanó, and it has me moved in a number of ways. First, I admit it's pretentious. Part of me has me thinking of art students filming while tripping balls but the other half of me likes it. The song is so beautiful and opens itself very much to interpretation. The visual medium of videos is perfect for it. Even though it was really out there it got the emotions across and told a linear story at it's base even if it all wasn't wrapped up in a package that could be jarring to some. Anyway, Sigur Ros is really a band that's leaving a landmark on me this year! :)

Oh, and ladies, it has Shia Lebouf's and his package in the video if that's your thing! :heheh:

Wow! That was unexplainable yet beautiful. One of the most intriguing music videos I've seen.

What about the song itself Gabble! I love it simple as it is! It's mesmerizing! I'm glad you liked it as a whole! I've watched it a couple times and I'm liking it more and more! It's one of those things where you never know exactly what's contained but you get more of a feel for it each time! They could've had a video of anything against the backdrop of this song and I'd still be pulled in. What a subtle enchanting beauty! :D

I agree completely, the song is just as mesmerising and enchanting as the video and its minimalism creates a very peaceful atmosphere.

Yeah it was the VIP tent talk at Sigur Ros show on Tuesday nite at Prospect Park, Brooklyn. Met a few of the video makers and Jonsi popped in for a second. :)

Great show I decided not to sit in the typical VIP seats and went and stood in the crowd up front. Great show even the crickets where singing along. Only had my small camera.

I like that song LG but believe it or not my favorite is even heavier in atmosphere and has the greatest build since Saeglopur IMO! I posted it on the last page but it bares repeating. Here's:

Varuo

(It could be quite the score)
