Based on the iTunes previews (which are gone now, shocker), this is one of the more accessible songs on the album. Think more ‘Tomorrow, In a Year’ than ‘Silent Shout’. Definitely don’t go in expecting anything poppy.

Personally I think this song is amazing.

More bands should follow this model of album release. Start selling the vinyl at a show with absolutely no warning, wait a few hours, make official announcement saying it will be available everywhere in two weeks, watch everyone shit themselves. No fuss, no hyping, just great music.

Why is no one asking him the important questions, like what’s going on with that new Volcano Choir album he mentioned a few months ago?

If anything from Shields deserves to be on this list, it’s got to be Sun In Your Eyes. What an incredible closer.

Uh, the Place Lives is from Clear Moon, not Ocean Roar.

Also both albums are excellent.

“Why do people have to pick which one they think is better?”

Because internet.

Nice try, Columbia Records.

Man this song is great. Two albums and three singles in a year? I don’t know if I can handle this.

I’m not going to pretend I understand my feelings toward Kitty Pryde, but I do know that I just listened to and enjoyed a remix of Call Me Maybe featuring a white teenage girl rapping over it, so that’s certainly something.

So does anyone want to actually talk about this? Or did no one listen to the leak? Some general talking points:

This is probably my third favorite Sigur Ros album, behind Agaetis and (). It might surpass () once I hear a better version.

So far my favorites are Ekki mukk, Varud, and Vardeldur. Even if the last one is just a new version of Luppulagid.

Your turn.
