Was this your first Sigur Ros listen, chud?

Nope.

Good chat.

But my first real deliberate listen. I've heard all the early records though I'm not super familiar with them.

I finally sat down with them about 2 months ago. I, too, have heard various recordings of them over the year but it just recently hit me how incredible it is. Sometimes you just have to wait for the universe to give you the nudge, you know?

yea. Im excited to see them in a few weeks. However, I am less than pleased with the venue I will be seeing them at. 1st Bank Center. i feel like it should be at red rocks or in a theater of sorts.

Listened to Með suð í eyrum við spilum endalaust today and I really loved it.

Hopelandic. Fascinating.

The strange thing is you often read on the internet all their songs are in Hopelandic. Which is wrong. Only a few songs on Agaetis Byrjun & all of () is in Hopelandic. Rest is Icelandic (or the one, All Alright, in English).

I love the album but nothing grips me like the first time the first few notes of Vaka really hit me. Once you've digested it watch the video.

Untitled 3 on ( ) is still their finest moment. That build up is f-ing exquisite!

Not sure about 'finest', but certainly one of them.

Harmless is crabby lately:(

Also, im kind of hesitant to see them live. Yes, I know it will be incredible and quite moving. However, I kind of want to keep Sigur ros as this incredible music that comes from a mythical place that no human can actually create. I dont want that spoiled by seeing it performed live?

Or something.

For me it seemed incredible that it could be performed live and made it that much more impressive.

I am sorry.

I just... I want new Sigur Ros music to make life more bearable.

Good idea. And this 2nd promo for the live tour hasn't been posted here yet. Anything else you'd like done?
