Polyethylene
06.02.13 | Nah listening link courtesy of XL, I'm the music editor of a magazine in my city so I get advance copies/streams from a few of the big labels. Not at liberty to share sorry guys but rest assured this album is awesome |
Polyethylene
06.02.13 | As a whole its very melancholy, and the instrumentation is easily more diverse than any other Sigur Ros album. I thought Valtari was lovely but this definitely smokes it |

06.02.13 | omggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggg |
Polyethylene
06.02.13 | Some serious nuclear winter/Chernobyl vibes going on |
jtswope
06.02.13 | I really really want to hear this. |
Polyethylene
06.02.13 | Should leak pretty soon, I just won't be the one to do it |
ViralOblivion
06.02.13 | This and black dahlia need to leak fucking now |
Winesburgohio
06.02.13 | I'm not a fan at all, it's so bombastic and obvious
maybe it just hasn't clicked yet though? only listened to it twice |
Winesburgohio
06.02.13 | but yeah it's better than Valtari |
Polyethylene
06.02.13 | The only thing on here approaching bombastic imo is Brennisteinn, which happens to be one of my favourite Sigur Ros songs. Obvious in what way? |
Artuma
06.02.13 | Brennisteinn is one of their best songs imo too, not so big on Isjaki. hoping it will leak soon |
Polyethylene
06.02.13 | Most of these songs are beautifully tangential, and have quite a lot of detail to them. Not knocking the broad strokes albums like Agaetis and Valtari were painted with, but yeah very complex by comparison. The second track Hrafntinna is a great example |
JS19
06.02.13 | This better turn up somewhere soon |
Winesburgohio
06.02.13 | Obvious in that every climax or route the songs take seem kinda predictable (in my humble opinion)! And it'll leak when they send out physical copies but the streams are watermarked so no-one can share without going thru a shitload of palaver |
SAPoodle
06.02.13 | I am so goddamn excited for this. |
Polyethylene
06.02.13 | Hmm, I don't agree with you on the climax/route thing. Each to their own though! |
Winesburgohio
06.02.13 | actually i may have been premature in my judgement, the third listen is much better! Rafstraumur is particularly lovely, the way it opens up mmmmm |
Polyethylene
06.02.13 | Has grown on me with each spin ja :) |
