Sigur Ros is one of the most intruging bands to come along in recent memory in my opinon. I had the pleasure of seeing them live a couple years ago and the show was nothing short of brilliant. They have revealed the details of thier next album.

we can now announce that the title of the new sigur rós album is takk…, which is icelandic for “thanks”. it will be released september 12th on EMI records. we at sigur-ros.co.uk got a chance to listen to the album recently and for our money it’s the best thing the band has ever released. we can’t wait for the world to hear it. the tracklist on takk… is as follows:

1. takk…
2. glósóli
3. hoppípolla
4. með blóðnasir
5. sé lest
6. sæglópur
7. mílanó
8. gong
9. andvari
10. svo hljótt
11. heysátan

Anyone care to interperet?

For some back catalog memories, have a listen to a couple tracks…
Sigur Ros- untitled #8 (a.k.a. popplagið / the pop song)
Sigur Ros- Olsen, Olsen
Sigur Ros- Von

Jonsi and the boys are also in a touring mood, and have set up a tour diary for your reading pleasure, hopefully it wont require hopelandic translations. To see all the tour dates, come visit the concert page………….

About Joe Long

Joe started ENS in 2003 after most people he wanted to talk to about music were worn thin by his ramblings. The outlet this site provided helped out, and somehow is still going 9 years later. After a four year stint as a WOXY DJ, Joe returned to Cincinnati and continues to pioneer ENS. In addition to the overall look and feel of the site, Joe provides regular reviews, and kinda makes sure this whole thing stays afloat.
