Kveikur [CD]

Much more hard-edged sound from Sigur Ros. Most of the songs are heavily layered with percussion. It's an interesting evolution of their sound, which is somewhat expected after their keyboardist left the group. Those hypnotic keyboard melodies are missed, but it's refreshing to hear the band taking a new path.

The album has a lot of dark themes played by weird instruments and honestly is on EOF their best. It was even used in a TV show.

Sigur Ros is one of the most original and powerful bands to make music that is nowhere near the cookie cutter music industry

This is, arguably, the band's most complete album and is great for both non-fans and the die-hards.
