Another wonderful video from Sigur Ros' Mystery Film Experiement project and the latest video off their current release Valtari .

Apenas algunos días después del lanzamiento de su último video, los islandeses de Sigur Rós siguen estrenando más propuestas audiovisuales desde Valtari . En esta oportunidad, se trata del cinemático clip para “Ekki Múkk” , que también forma parte del Valtari Mystery Film Experiment y que fue dirigido por el cineasta Nick Abrahams . Otra de las joyas y sorpresas que nos trae este video es la presencia del actor irlandés Aiden Gillen . Quizás los [...]

Mesmo chegando a seu décimo vídeo, a série Mystery Film Experiment ainda nos apresenta inovações e belas surpresas. Dessa vez, o responsável pela produção foi o diretor Nick Abrahams , que convidou o ator Aidan Gillen - famoso pelos personagens Petyr Baelish, em Game Of Thrones e Tommy Carcetti, na série The Wire - para estrelar o clipe de Ekki Múkk . Primeira música do disco Valtari a ser divulgada, Ekki Múkk ainda é bastante lembrada pelo vídeo do barco flutuante que ilustra também a capa do álbum. [...]

Sigur Rós nos ha regalado toda una serie de emociones y aventuras a través de los videos que ha venido creando, con la ayuda de varios directores, para las melodías de Valtari , su nuevo disco. Hemos viajado por bosques, campos de estrellas, hemos visto gente siniestra y extraña, llegado a Nueva York y presenciado los problemas que trae la industralización. Ahora la banda nos lleva a una aventura reflexiva y espiritual en el video número 9 de su proyecto, realizado para los temas "Rembihnútur" y [...]

Sigur Rós acaba de estrenar un nuevo video animado bajo el título “Seraph” , el número nueve de la serie Valtari Mystery Film Experiment , esta vez bajo la dirección de Dash Shaw y co-escrito por John Cameron Mitchell -director responsable de películas como Rabbit Hole , Shortbus , Hedwig y the Angry Inch -. “Seraph” se enfoca en el cuerpo humano y el proceso de crecimiento del mismo -con sus respectivas implicaciones-, a través de la historia de un personaje [...]

Short and sweet today.  I'm still on vacation, but the latest from Sigur Rós hits stores tomorrow and I can't ignore it.  You'll definitely want to check out Largehearted Boy , because even with the limited releases this memorial week, there's still a handful of great releases worthy of a listen (including releases from Edward Sharpe and the magnetic Zeros , Regina Spektor , [...]

A new   Sigur Rós record. The world has waited four long years for just that. In 2009, they claimed to have another record almost ready, but it was supposedly scrapped, and as of the beginning of 2010 the band were assumed to be on indefinite hiatus as frontman  Jónsi launched his solo career. For almost two years following that there was very little word from  Sigur Rós . Anything they might have been doing was kept well under wraps. Then, they suddenly released "Inni" , a [...]

Over the last couple of weeks we've been hearing snippets and new songs from Sigur Rós '  sixth studio album "Valtari" and a few days ago they were streaming the entire thing on their site for an hour in your timezone. If all you've heard from the album are the songs they made public such as "Eg Anda" , "Ekki Múkk" , and  "Varúð"  you should be more [...]

Today has been deemed Sigur Rós  day, as the band stream their entire new album "Valtari" for an hour in every time zone around the world via their website . Also today, Zane Lowe premiered another brand new track from the album "Eg anda", a propulsive and cacophonous soundscape, nothing short of spectacular and everything you've come to expect from the Icelandic band who've been shaping [...]

Try, try and try again, you just can't deny a Sigur Rós track and new song "Varúð" is yet again another breathtaking example of what we have come to expect. continue reading >>

Listen to Sigur Rós 's new song "Varúð" below, taken from their album "Valtari" . On May 28th we'll be treated to a brand new album from Iceland's majestic Sigur Rós, their first since 20082s "Með suð í eyrum við spilum endalaust" . "Valtari" will be released via XL and as a taster we've already heard the stunning lead single "Ekki Múkk" , but thanks to the internet and the radio combining we now have "Varúð" , another [...]

All good things come in threes. Our third pick for Record Store Day 2012 is the 10-inch limited edition 'Ekki Múkk' vinyl, with exclusive b-side 'Kvistur'. Like Beach House , this won't be appearing on the forthcoming Sigur Rós album Valtari . Apparently you can play it backwards. Upwards. Inwards or outwards. Or just plain old fashioned forwards. -James Godwin, April 23rd, 2012 Related articles [...]

A finales de marzo les presentamos “Ekki Múkk”, sencillo que los islandeses de Sigur Rós presentaron para promocionar su álbum Valtari y que también publicaron en vinilo de 10” para el Record Store Day pasado. El lado B de ese lanzamiento (que no formará parte de Valtari ) ya se puede escuchar en línea y se llama “Kvistur” . Aquí les dejamos lo nuevo de Sigur Rós , un tema completamente ambiental (como ya es costumbre), que bien podría formar parte de un soundtrack. [...]

Sigur Ros Ekki Mukk (D33J Remix) Hands down the most beautiful and technically sound track to come out this year is Sigur Ros’s , “Ekki Mukk” is on a level most artists dream about reaching in their wildest dreams. Downtempo electronic artist D33J took a crack on picking “Ekki Mukk” apart and the result is pretty fantastic. The only rule is, to listen to the remix, you need to hear the original. At this point I need to just shut up and have you listen for yourself.  All I can say [...]

If you're in the market for a new song from Sigur Rós, you're in for 7 minutes and 46 seconds of luck. “Ekki Múkk” is much like the standard fare from the Icelandic group, which based on who you talk to, is either perfect for sleepy time, or the most angelic sounds found here on Earth. [...]

Since high school Sigur Ros has been one of my favorite groups. To this day they remain one of the best live acts I've ever had the pleasure of seeing. There isn't always a time to get cinematic and weepy, but the Icelandic band is the best for those rare occasions. "Ekki Múkk" is the lead single to Valtari , Sigur Ros's first studio album since 2008. Listen to "Ekki Múkk" below: Valtari is in stores May 28th. via stereogum [...]
