it's true, I'm glad they changed a lot on their last 2 albums, but that doesnt mean I don't like the others, in fact all of sigur ros albums are among my favourite albums... but if they had kept with songs like untitled 8 they would have been just another post rock band

My mom has been getting all uptight lately about me listening to music while I study (:rolleyes:), and finally declared that I'm only allowed to listen to stuff without lyrics. I went off on a rant about how Sigur Ros should fall into the study music category, because technically if I don't understand the lyrics it's more or less like classical music, plus Jonsi's voice is an instrument anyway. She finally caved after I showed her many examples to prove my points. Yay Iceland. :heart:

Listen to Takk... and then Agaetis Byrjun. Those are their best and closest to the overall sound of the band. ( ) (the least accessible) and Meo su i eyrum...(their most accessible album) are wonderful too, but they're departures from the band's "normal" sound, so it'd give you kind of a false impression.

i just like to say i had a drug-free out of body experience (the only kind i have) while listening to hoppipolla. It was incredible.

 

:mellow:

the first time I heard it, was with phones... absolutley breathtaking, I've never been to heaven but I suppose it's the music angels play... (ok that was cheesy :p) since that moment I loved Sigur Rós

I really like the name ara batur. It means "rowboat"

 

Row Boat

 

You tried everything

Yes, a thousand times

Experienced enough

Been through enough

But you it was who let everything

Into my heart

And it was you who once again

Awoke my spirit

 

I parted, you parted

 

You stir up

Emotions

In a blender

Everything in disarray

But it was you who was always

There for me

It was you who never judged

My true friend

 

I parted, you parted

(hopelandic)

 

You sail on rivers

With an old oar

Leaking badly

You swim to shore

Pushed the waves away

But to no avail

You float on the sea

Sleep on the surface

Light through the fog

 

(hopelandic)
