I saw a white cd a my local electronica shop called Sigur Ros last week and thought it looked good.
I was wrong.It is the best album at the moment IMO. I've never heard of them before,does anyone else know of them?
Its the ( ) album. Its very RadioHead influenced with some great piano tracks in there,along with an non-existing language being sung.
Buy It!

Yeah. They're quite popular. Is it just one bloke? Not sure. Got that album, quite good. Bollocks lyrics. Falsettos, mmmm. Sad but uplifting. Not for Slayer fans. Weird titles. All look similar. Chords are cool, I like chords.

I think I remember reading in NME that all the tracks and the album itself, if you have to name it, are called 'love'. Or was it the name of his girlfriend.... can't remember. Either way, doesn't matter.

and what's the english pronunciation of their name?? I've been ignorantly saying "see-ger rooz". Does anyone know how to pronounce it??
And how do you pronounce their previous record "Agaetis Byrjun".
I've just within the past few days begun to discover them and I love the music, but I find it hard to discuss them with anyone because I can't pronounce anything related to them.

radiohead actually claimed to be influenced by sigur ros. if you ever get a chance to see them live please do. the record, as beautiful as it is, does them no justice.
