odin raven competition
01/04/2007

sigur rós have finished mixing their long-awaited orchestral work odin’s raven magic and hope to release it on cd and dvd early in the autumn. the work, written and debuted in 2002, is based on the 14th century icelandic poem about a great banquet held by the gods in valhalla. sigur rós is interested in involving the fans in the cd’s artwork and have requested fans to send in their own cover image for the cd. the best cover image as judged by the band will be used on the upcoming cd release of odin’s raven magic. the format and content of the cover image will be mostly up to you but it must coincide with the poem’s theme of elfin magic and must contain at least one nordic troll and two dwarves. please send in submissions to band@sigur-ros.co.uk before wednesday, april 4th.

[edit: april fools! there is currently no release date for odin’s raven magic and sigur rós are not, in fact, requesting images of trolls and dwarves :) many thanks to those who submitted images, which we sincerely appreciated and enjoyed]
