Sigur Rós

The music of Sigur Rós makes reviewers wax lyrical, describing their work as follows: ‘Sigur Rós’ music has all the depth, resonance and humanity of a Brueghel landscape, and is best appreciated at loud volumes in open spaces, as a soundtrack for scenery, real or imagined’ (Pitchfork). And: ‘as pioneering, unnerving, inspiring, confusing, as lyrically anarchic as everything that has moved the world, ever’ (Drowned In Sound). The band have currently released seven studio albums, two films, solo albums, orchestral and choral works, tech start-up collaborations, music for dance companies and leading visual artists, as well as several film scores. No compromise, no bowing to convention, just allowing the muse to steer the way forward and the music to do the talking.
