Worth a Listen: Sigur Rós - Með suð í eyrum við spilum endalaust

    About twenty-four hours ago Sigur Rós posted their new album [1], in it's entirety, online for everyone to stream [2]. After listening to it pretty much nonstop at work yesterday and today, I'm willing to say it's pretty good. I'm not sure where it ranks in the grand scheme of Sigur Rós albums yet, but it's good... real good. My favorite track so far has to be inní mér syngur vitleysingur, the second track. Links to download the album can be found after the break.

    Two weeks ago Sigur Rós posted the first track of this album on their website as a free download. Gobbledigook is a fairly different song when compared to the rest of the band's catalog. At first, I wasn't entirely sure I liked the song... at least not as a stand alone track released as a preview of the upcoming album, but it grew on me. I think there are much better songs on Með suð í eyrum við spilum endalaust though. The rest of the album sounds much more familiar than I was expecting after listening to Gobbledigook. Suð í Eyrum, the sixth track, is a great song that has a Takk-esque crescendo. It's safe to say that if you enjoyed Takk, you'll like this album.

    In the interest of full disclosure I should point out that I am going to see Sigur Rós live later this week. Alright, so it's not so much full disclosure as it is veiled bragging. Either way, I'm looking forward to the concert even more now that I've heard the new album.
