Both times I hated them. Really, really hated them. I don't know who it was said it, I've a feeling it was SC, but they truly are the new Enya.

Sorry, I have mental problems that mean I am incapable of listening to the part of my head that says, "Don't write that, it's really not that important you say it, is it?"

It's totally important that you write that. At the risk of making myself even more unpopular than I already am for being 'new', Sigor Ros are, at best, unintelligent whale song. Respect to Glice for bringing up their direness.

Sorry.

I think everyone thinks they are these pretentious assholes who really think their music is emotional and blah blah blah. But if you read what they have to say Sigur Ros says that really all they do is jam on 4 chords and experiment a little in the studio. No one knows music theory except the keyboardist who writes most of their stuff. They dont think of their music as a religious or spiritual experience. Remember they are all atheists. I think the fans fuck it up for them but whatever, they make me happy.

here is a (paraphrased) quote from Sigur Ros "People seem to think we are this really serious band, but we really aren't. we hang around and make fart jokes and stuff. we aren't serious at all."

by the way, i fuckin love sigur ros, and love GY!BE even more. people make call it pretensious or whatever you want, the music is fuckin mind-altering.and by the way "schools look like prisons... prisons look like malls" is (now) a lyric in a Silver Mount Zion song...not all that wierd, cos of Efrim

I love godspeed's music (when I'm in the mood) but they were so bloody whiny. I read an article with them once and the band were saying how they didn't want anyone buying their music from big stores under any circumstance and to always try to support your indie store and so on. Then they started saying that maybe it was ok to buy their stuff from big stores sometimes but they weren't happy about it and so on. They just went around in circles until they weren't too sure what they wanted.

Actually, I know what they wanted;for people to buy their records, go see them live but to get given out to by the band for doing so! Jesus!

It's a pity that they didn't do another record though. I really liked the last one.
