![[Listen] Sigur Rós - "Ísjaki"](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4915210_lg.jpg)
Sigur Rós have dished out another single from their upcoming album Kveikur , which will see the band going in a "more aggressive" direction. We got a sense of that with " Brennisteinn " and now you can hear it on their new song "Ísjaki." The band are streaming the single along with an accompanying lyric video—although it doesn't make all that much sense when the lyrics sung are either Icelandic or the band's made-up language Vonlenska—which you can watch below. Kveikur is out on June 18th. [...]
For the first time on XL records, Sigur Ross have an album coming out. Kveikur follows up 20122s Valtari, the English for those album names being Primer (according to Google) and Roller. "Ísjaki" means Iceberg in Icelandic, and the single we have for your listening pleasure today. It's expansive but upbeat, ambient pop with pace. The album will be available June 18 via XL.

Last month, Sigur Rós announced news of a new studio album, Kveikur. Self-produced by the three members of Sigur Rós – Jón Þór Birgisson, Georg Holm and Orri Páll Dýrason – Kveikur will...
For those unfamiliar with my Icelandic music fetish, experimental-classical music or that one song he did on The Hunger Games soundtrack, Ólafur Arnalds is a former hardcore drummer gone neo-classical producer who's been quietly acquiring representation as one of the most talented and ethereal musicians from Iceland. His stylistic range is one thing, but his undeniably hypnotic and captivating instrumental work functions on a thematic level so high, it feels as if it couldn't possibly have come from human hands. Past records such as ...and they have escaped the weight [...]
Sigur Rós are returning with a new album this year titled Kveikur , only a year since last year's Valtari. It will come out June 18 via X.L. Recordings . Sadly, the band is now a three-piece, as Kjartan Sveinsson has left the band. A new album announcement is well timed, as I am seeing the band for the first time (full performance wise) tonight at MSG. The band released a new song called "Brennisteinn" which will appear on the album, and definitely lives up to the promise that their material has a more aggressive [...]
After dropping some hints in January that their upcoming record would be "more aggressive" then touting some (indeed, pretty aggressive) new tracks on tour around Europe, Sigur Rós have confirmed some details about the album, which is titled Kveikur . We've already heard t he title track alongside "Yfirboro" and "Hrafntinna" thanks to some fan-recorded concert videos, and the band have just released a super-creepy video for a super-heavy new song called "Brennisteinn" that you can check out now, so it looks like we've sampled just under half the tracks from Kveikur [...]
I have a seriously hard time believing of all the things you can do in 7 minutes and 40 seconds today that this will not be by far the best use of your time. From their just recently announced forthcoming album, Kveikur , we have the video for their first single from the record, "Brennisteinn". I have to admit, over the past few years my love for Sigur Ros had begun to mellow out quite a bit. I happily bought their albums and put them on from time to time, but if this song is an accurate indication of [...]
KAPNORTH is more than just a name. KAPNORTH is the ghost, that four musicians from Switzerland create with their compositions. A band that finds its inspiration in the far North, in the pebbly rawness and in the vastness of the branded horizon - and in the never-ending quietness, in the yearning and its unruly power.
Clif's top ten list for 2012 with twenty others receiving honorable mention: 10. Cat Meat – Cat Meat We previewed Cat Meat’s self-titled debut as a Friday Free Feature on November 9, and it’s been in constant rotation between my iPod and car stereo. A complex, experimental alt. country/folk album that claims influences such as Wilco, Sparklehorse and Califone; the classic psychedelic experimenalist, Captain Beefheart; and the legendary bluesmen Mississippi John Hurt and Blind Willie McTell. When you listen, they’re all there in subtle drips, drabs and dollops. [...]

It's been four years since Sigur Rós last released an album and four years since the band announced they would be taking an indefinite hiatus. Although the band have been relatively quiet on the recording front, they have kept themselves busy during this break releasing their first live album and soundtrack to the band's second live-action film Inni , an accompaniment to the previously-released 2007 tour documentary Heima . While lead singer Jónsi has kept himself busy with two solo records and a collaboration album with partner Alex Somers, gossip of a new album being released in [...]
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 [...]

Aunque quedan tan solo dos semanas para que se publique la nueva placa, la banda islandesa ha querido organizar una "fiesta global" de escucha que han bautizado como la "Hora Valtari" ( #valtarihour en Twitter).
