    Yeah I like Sigur Ros as much as the next guy but I bought that dvd they just released a while ago and was watching it with some broad and she laughed at how much the dude sounds like miss piggy.

    I haven't been able to get miss piggy out of my head whenever I hear them now. I can't do it. I had to swear to myself not to listen to them for a few months so it would go away. I'm fucking worried and pretty fucking pissed off about the prospect of losing them to a fricken muppet.

    Hahaha wow, I'm not that stupid.

    About half of their songs are sang in a made-up language called Hopelandic, and the other half in Icelandic. Google it, it's actually really interesting.

    Don't insult my intelligence. :)

    ah, I didn't research it too hard, I'll admit :)
    and I wasn't trying to insult your intelligence, I could see how someone might think icelandic is a made up language :lol:

    They have a full documentary of Sigur Ros on you tube that is worth checking out. There really are one of a kind. There needs to more music like this as in just doing their own thing that is truely your their own thing. Something that will sound fresh from years to come.

    I had the pleasure of seeing them live a few years ago. Totally amazing live band as well. Unfortunately I'm not getting into the new album...

    hi.

    anyone heard the 'relatively' new release of theirs? Its good so far. Two songs in to a serious listen, but I'm surprised by what they've done, which is different.
