So I’m finally listening to the download of Með suð í eyrum við spilum endalaust.

Sean and I were discussing the Jonsi speak recently. Festival contains the ever present SR line that seems to appear in many of their songs. Once again, I have no idea what he is singing or how its spelt or pronounced, but I call it the “you sigh on”. Do you know what I’m...... [view]

Piano. Jonsi. Drums. Jonsi.Glowing.
I don’t know how to describe this one.

Another beast.
Oh, but Jonsi makes beasts beautiful. OK, this is too pretty to ruin with my words. But I do imagine its going to turn as we are only 3 minutes in to an almost 9 minute track.
So haunting and still.
Oh damn them, a boy’s choir? Seriously, where are the doves? OK...... [view]

Haunting and quiet, a night time song. Eyes blinking still.
I got excited when I heard they had one song in English. Now I’m not sure SR should be heard any other way than how they usually are. I like not knowing what they are singing about. I like the unknowing bliss of confusion...... [view]

Now if I had walked into HMV and asked for the Japanese pressing of The Sugarcubes’ debut album, I would have expected to not walk out of the store with it in my hands. It is not expected that HMV should be able to provide the services of Red Eye or even JB Hi Fi for that matter, but for...... [view]
