IF ever you felt Sigur Ros don’t quite go far enough into the realm of ethereality and are holding something back from their euphoric trademark sounds, then this collaboration between frontman Jonsi Birgisson and his artist co-conspirator Alex Somers might just satisfy your peculiar appetites.
Majestic, impressive and, yes, glacial, if music was weather this is the sound of an ice age forming on a vast landscape before your very eyes – a Narnia without the talking animals.
Wordless and without boundaries, it’s like the soundtrack to the best dream you ever had – the one that left you elated, refreshed and reinvigorated by the cosmos, as if all the music of the ages was slowly being passed before your ears. Everyone will find their own perfect time to play this.
