Sigur R?s.

Post by daniel »

I hope you kids haven't forgotten that Sigur R?s has a new album out on Tuesday/Wednesday. It's called "Takk" and you can listen to the whole of it here: http://www.myspace.com/sigurros

Or maybe I'm the only Sigur R?s fan here ...
Wee... they're coming to Stockholm and I have teeckeets!! [king]

Thank for da link. I'll buy it and hope to see them in Dublin on Nov 11 [king]

Oh... Takk is all I've been able to listen too since it came out. I LOVE it THIS MUCH!!! My favourites so far are Gong and Sv? Hlj?tt.

Well... all I could listen to until yesterday. I went on a record shopping spree and got Interpol's two albums and Franz Ferdinand's new single.

This seems to be the lonely Sigur Ros thread; guess there hasn't been much news;
but now there's a new EP on the '3voor12 luisterpaal' so check it out, since it's free to listen to!

http://3voor12.vpro.nl/luisterpaal/

It is called 'Heim' which probably is the same as norwegian hjem -at home.

I've bought the double EP Hvarf/Heim and it's very nice; I like the double layout of the packaging allthough a booklet with info/pictures would have been nice too. There's supposedly also a dvd out, also called Heim(a) that shows the return of Sigur Ros to their home country Iceland where they play a series of unanounced acoustic concerts. Can't wait to see that, cause it's also showing the landscape very nicely i've read :D

The BBC's Culture Show did a half hour special on Sigur Ros a couple of weeks ago,previewing the film and them playing live at the Electric Proms.The full prog doesnt seem to be avaailable to see,but heres 5 mins of "Hoppipolla". ^

Thanks for the download link Véro :) It's nice to be able to see "The Culture Show" about Sigur Ros this way! But i've also bought the dvd last weekend and am most impressed by it! Really a wonderful and impressive picture of the music, the band and Iceland. It was also nice to see Amiina play along most of the time :). This is really mandatory viewing for everyone here I would say, the way they make music is very impressive for me and watching the movie was very emotional too.
I'll watch it many more times! :D
