Ridiculous this terrible supersweet violin-coating over each and any song. No rythm, hardly any melody and this sickening "language".
The whole SR-thing is a hoax. It can't be nothing else. How old might their fans (fans??? really???) be? Twelve? Just eight? Liking lullabies? Or are they even adults? Grannies maybe? I just can't figure it out.
I read about them, downloaded their albums and was terrified. I deleted all! Then I read again, wondered if I had been ignorant and loaded the same albums again and gave them a real chance another time. Same thing: I could hardly stand a single song. This pussy-attitude. This whining. This childish melancholy. Please point out a single, just ONE (!) single song of quality and I take anything said back and download that song a third time for good!
Really angry,

Come on, the same comment (like "unitled 8")?!?

 I can appreciate that sort of facetiousness, but in this case....I hope this isn't the most representative of Sigur Ros. I dig this sort of music, but this one alternated between unintentional hilarity and sheer boredom. |

I was standing outside my office and listening to this yodelling. I was trying to turn it down telepathically. (That never works.)
It sounds (to me) like Swiss Miss joined The Pink Floyd in an elevator.
Still soothing, but I'm trying to work and not space.

I quite like this, some serious mood music with a great vocal for a capper.  |

I can see both sides of the "debate" here. It creates an interesting atmospheric mood.

What a beautiful noise. Not an easy listen - I've had to suspend work for the duration. I feel blown away.
