Sigur Ros

Jenn · 09-20-2003, 01:05 PM

I'm not quite sure if this is the proper forum for Sigur Ros fans seeing as they are quite different than Damien but I've fallen in love with them. I just wish that their cd "()" was available in Canada. Anyways, just a thread showing my appreciation to them.[img]smileys/smiley14.gif[/img]

#Ian# · 09-20-2003, 01:37 PM

the first CD is far, far better. Saw them at glastonbury ths summer, I didin't notice it was raining

stonecrest · 09-20-2003, 01:47 PM

sigur ros is just amazing.. i used to think agætis byrjun was better but i tell you, i now think ( ) is far superior. agætis byrjun is definitely more accessible to people that have never heard of them though.

i'd really love to catch them live, heard so many good things about their performances.

and btw, their "first" cd is actually Von.

JAKE · 09-20-2003, 08:07 PM

Great New "Thread" Jenn!!

I had a boyfriend that was a freak about sigur rose. Drove me mad driving in the car. Finally he stopped talking about it and through it in the player. I listened, I liked, but I did not love. Feels like soft Radiohead with out comprehensive lyrics.

Gatsby · 09-21-2003, 07:05 PM

brilliant music to sleep to... i love sigur ros and i really wanna see them live sometime as ive heard its a brilliant experience. "()" is such a beautiful album but Von for me is by far superior

patchipu · 09-22-2003, 11:26 AM

I love Sigur Rós! They're absolutely brilliant! Agaetis Byjun is one of my favourite albums of all time![img]smileys/smiley4.gif[/img]And the make THE most beautiful videos ever! Wow...[img]smileys/smiley3.gif[/img]

Uno- X · 11-11-2003, 09:04 AM

I accidentally broke my () album.

Dodi Ma · 11-11-2003, 10:16 AM

shame on you uno... its like damiens album to me... keep it perfect & always close to the heart...

oh and i noticed they won an award for the first track on "()" didnt really like the video but its such a brilliant song...

Mojo_Pin1980 · 11-11-2003, 10:20 AM

You didn't like the video???????[img]smileys/smiley3.gif[/img]

OMG, that's one of the most brilliant vids ever!!![img]smileys/smiley3.gif[/img]

Gatsby · 11-11-2003, 10:30 AM

well i heard the song long before ever seeing the video and it just wasnt my view on the song... a bunch of kids with gas masks running around in ash wasnt how i pictured it in my head so i didnt like it

btw. ive returned to my old username after i was found out[img]smileys/smiley4.gif[/img]

Mojo_Pin1980 · 11-11-2003, 10:34 AM

What did you picture then?

For me, the vid is absolutely perfect! The build-up is superb in boththe song and the vid. Very dramatic.

Btw, have you ever seen them perform Vaka on Last Call with Carson Daly? That must be the most amazing version I've ever heard/seen![img]smileys/smiley4.gif[/img]

katinka · 11-11-2003, 10:34 AM

ah, and you moved to russia i see!

Angela · 11-11-2003, 10:35 AM

The video is do with anti War, I love the start of the video with some cute little children but viðrar vel til loftárása is the best video.

Its great that they had won something since the 'shortlist' prize 2001

Enoch · 11-11-2003, 02:09 PM

I bought the album (white one with no writing on it at all!) because I read a post about it on this board. I'm a bit confused by it all but it sounds pretty good. I must say I find it a bit depressing at times though [img]smileys/smiley19.gif[/img]

i think it depends when you play the album... i usually always play it when i come home at night from a night on the town and it totally sends me to sleep feeling great and i dont seem to get hangovers anymore because of it[img]smileys/smiley4.gif[/img]

I love listening to ( ) when I'm riding my bike (I'm Dutch[img]smileys/smiley2.gif[/img]) after a night out, esp. when it's foggy. It just makes me feel utterly happy![img]smileys/smiley1.gif[/img]

Gatsby · 11-11-2003, 04:16 PM

plus its such stoner music which is great for dutch people too im sure

(dont worry im envious)[img]smileys/smiley4.gif[/img]

Mojo_Pin1980 · 11-11-2003, 04:22 PM

Hehehe, yeah I smoke weed, grow tulips, eat cheese and wear cloggs[img]smileys/smiley5.gif[/img][img]smileys/smiley2.gif[/img]

Angela · 11-11-2003, 04:37 PM

Ha, ha! You don't own cows and wind mills? [img]smileys/smiley2.gif[/img]

Gatsby · 11-11-2003, 04:42 PM

windmills? like in leitrim?[img]smileys/smiley4.gif[/img]

Mojo_Pin1980 · 11-11-2003, 05:35 PM

Sorry to disappoint you Angela... I don't even smoke weed![img]smileys/smiley2.gif[/img]Although my dad does grow it in his backyard![img]smileys/smiley17.gif[/img]

Angela · 11-11-2003, 05:44 PM

Life isn't what you expect it to be - ever [img]smileys/smiley5.gif[/img]

What about tulips, Rikkert? You *do* grow tulips, right? [img]smileys/smiley3.gif[/img] Say yes! [img]smileys/smiley4.gif[/img] Or are you saying this picture is fake?

P.S. I stopped smoking weed a long time ago.

Gatsby · 11-11-2003, 05:51 PM

i told you to stop taking pictures of my house... now i wont warn you again [img]smileys/smiley7.gif[/img]
