Danger: This CD will change you forever,
By A Customer
This review is from: Agaetis Byrjun (Audio CD)
Wow, what can I say. If you have any inkling to expose yourself to beautiful music, then this CD is for you. Sigur Ros has quickly become a staple in my CD player, and I am sure it will for you. This is what RadioHead has been trying to achieve, and Tom Yorkes invite to have Sigur Ros open for them only solidified my decision to purchase this disc. Agaetis Byrjun , and () - another phenomenal piece of music, have the potential to change your music habits forever. The haunting vocals (which are not in any language I recognize) will stay in your head long after the CD has stopped. The first time I listened to this it was like a whole new world of music was opened to me. I can only imagine this is exactly how people felt when first exposed to Dark Side of the Moon. The arrangement of instruments is simply stunning, and will have your emotions dancing all over the place. Please do not let this CD get away from you. Ask your friends, and anyone else who has a broad view on music, they will likely agree.

Innate, pure beauty.,
By JF Léger (Quispamsis, New Brunswick, Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Agaetis Byrjun (Audio CD)
'Agaetis Byrjun' is pure art, unlike most music released these days. Its innate beauty stuns at first listen and purely delights and sooths every listen thereafter. This album is unlike what most people have never considered possible, much less listened to. This, however, shouldn't daunt a prospective listener. Even if one does not enjoy this music (which I think is possible yet not common), one can appreciate the subtlety of Sigur Rós and their musical abilities.My favorite song on 'Agaetis Byrjun' is 'Vidrar Vil tel Loftarasa' which is Icelandic (as is sung the album) for 'nice dau for an air raid'. It's mood is unlike any other I've felt in my large and diverse collection of music. Its corresponding video is touching, for both obvious and personal reasons. On that note, I also recommend the Sigur 1/Sigur 9 single, not so much for the music CD than for the included DVD containing the breathtaking videos for 'Svefn-G-Englar', the abovementioned 'Vidrar Vil tel Loftarasa' from 'Agaetis Byrjun' and 'Untitled #1' from Sigur Rós' untitled following to 'Agaetis Burjun'

What music can be...,
By Kozar (Toronto, ON Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Agaetis Byrjun (Audio CD)
Only purchase if you are serious about music. It is one of the most enlightening experiences you will ever have. Everyone I know who is passionate about music has this CD. It is absolutely breathtaking... oh and if you want other credits, Thom Yorke had Sigur Ros open up for Radiohead in Europe because he felt the same way about them as I do...
