Why is post-rock so delicious? First, Explosions and now Sigur Rós?
So this band hails from Iceland and they sport some crazy melodic, experimental craziness with amazing falsetto vocals. If you're not one of the 300,000 people on the planet who understands Icelandic, then most of their musical titles won't mean a damn thing to you, but it doesn't really matter. It turns out most of his vocals are actually just gibberish and in all honesty, it doesn't really make a bit of difference because these guys rule so hard regardless. Definitely check out their music videos if you have some spare time, they're all pretty incredible. Really epic, orchestrated, beautiful music...it almost brings a tear to my eye.
Sigur Rós (1994 - Present)
Sigur Rós - Von (1997)
Sigur Rós - Ágætis byrjun (1999)
Sigur Rós - () (2002)
Sigur Rós - Takk... (2005)
Godspeed.
