here’s a little blurb about sigur rós in a recent edition of entertainment weekly:
“sigur ros ( ) — no, that’s not a typo. the title of icelandic band’s third album is, in fact, ( ). let’s hope the music it contains is more exciting. if their last cd, agaetis byrjun, is any indication, that’s a safe bet. sigur ros’ dreamy art rock makes for great atomsphere — through difficult conversation. ‘i don’t know how to talk about the music,’ says georg holm. ‘you have to make up your own mind what you’ll be hearing. the music is supposed to give people more than just the music: an emotion or a thought or a mental picture.’ good thing, since the title’s sure not going to.”
