Krunk

Sigur Rós is an alternative rock band that was formed in 1982 in Glasgow, Scotland. The band has undergone several lineup changes throughout the years, with Bobby Gillespie on vocals since 1984 and Andrew Innes on guitar since 1986. Other current members include Darrin Mooney on drums and Simone Butler on bass.

Over the years, Sigur Rós has had various former members who have contributed to their unique sound. These include Jim Beattie and Robert 'Throb' Young on guitar, Judith Boyle on vocals, Martin St. John on tambourine, Thomas McGurk and Gavin Skinner on drums, Henry Olsen and Gary 'Mani' Mounfield on bass, Paul Harte and Stuart May on guitar, Philip 'Toby' Tomanov and Steve Sidelnyk on drums.

The band's music has been described as atmospheric and ethereal, often incorporating elements of post-rock and shoegaze. Their sound is characterized by lead singer Bobby Gillespie's distinct vocal style and the band's ability to create immersive sonic landscapes.

Back In Stock

Sigur Ros' celebrated third album, and for many people - especially in US where it remains their biggest selling work - the most quintessentially Sigur Ros record of their career to date. It is the only album where Jonsi sings entirely in the wordless lyrics of Hopelandic. This desire to elide meaning and allow the listener to bring their own interpretation to the music extends to the eight songs, all of which are nameless. The music is broadly split into two halves, divided by a critical 36 seconds of silence. The first half of the album is lighter and more optimistic, the second bleaker and more melancholic, culminating in the thundering climax of Untitled #8, the closing song of every Sigur Ros show since the song was written in 2000.
