SIGUR RÓS (IS)One of the world’s most ethereal and delicate rock bands is finally back at Roskilde Festival – for the first time since 2006. Sigur Rós find their symphonic future rock in an air-void space, only accessed by astronauts and abstract painters. The unmistakable Icelandic mixture of sad angelic singing, big reverb and profound organ sounds is more delicate than newly fallen snow. The joy and redemption will even greater when front man Jónsi now and again rocks out on the electric guitar. Sigur Rós – Icelandic for victory rose – have sown something quite unique in the middle of the flower bed of rock music. Label: XL / Playground Links Back |  Delicate future rock |
